Fowler* and Darren Schreiber<\/b><br \/>\nIn the past 50 years, biologists have learned a tremendous amount about human brain function and its genetic basis. At the same time, political scientists have been intensively studying the effect of the social and institutional environment on mass political attitudes and behaviors. However, these separate fields of inquiry are subject to inherent limitations that may only be resolved through collaboration across disciplines. We describe recent advances and argue that biologists and political scientists must work together to advance a new science of human nature.<\/p><\/blockquote>\n<blockquote><p>PDF: http:\/\/dmschreiber.ucsd.edu\/Publications\/FowlerSchreiberScience2008.pdf<\/p><\/blockquote>\n<p>We look forward to learning more at this event next week!<\/p>\n<!-- AddThis Advanced Settings generic via filter on the_content --><!-- AddThis Share Buttons generic via filter on the_content -->","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>On Wednesday April 13th, the California Academy of Sciences and Sea Turtle Restoration Project will host the first (hopefully not the last) Science of Advocacy Session at the International Sea Turtle Society annual meeting.
