Dog Breed Is Not an Accurate Way To Predict Behavior
A new study that combined genome sequences from over 2,000 dogs with survey data from a further 18,000 pooches has come to a conclusion that upends over a century of established thinking on dog behavior, finding that a dog’s breed contributes little to its behavioral tendencies.

The Risk of Psychotic-Like Experiences Can Begin in Childhood
It has long been understood that environmental and socio-economic factor can increase a person’s risk of developing psychotic-like experiences that can become precursors to a schizophrenia diagnosis later in life. Researchers have found that these risk factors can be observed in pre-adolescent children.
