Interdisciplinary Perspectives on Genetic and Social Causes of Life Chances

Studies in behavioral genetics set out a while ago, promising to reveal the dynamics of human development by decrypting our genome. Now it becomes more and more apparent that the interplay between genetic predispositions and environmental influences across history, generations, and individual lifespan is far more complex than previously assumed. The collaboration of various scientific disciplines therefore is essential to answer some of the most urgent questions in this field of research.

Diese Tagung ist der Auftakt der Forschungsgruppe 'Genetic and Social Causes of Life Chances', die bis Juli 2016 am Zentrum für interdisziplinäre Forschung der Universität Bielefeld arbeiten wird. Geleitet wird die Forschungsgruppe von den Bielefelder Professoren Martin Diewald und Rainer Riemann.
