The medical and social science basis for a national infant care leave policy.

In a review of work in psychology, psychiatry, neonatology, and sociology, the birth or adoption of an infant emerges as a sensitive period in which parents need time for role adaptation. Evidence points to the need for job-protected leave without financial loss so that parents can meet the material and emotional needs of their family in general, and the developmental needs of their new infant in particular, during the early postpartum period.

Of mice and men: will the intersection of social science and genetics create new approaches for intimate partner violence?

The past two decades have yielded a recognition that intimate partner violence is ubiquitous. Although violence within relationships is bidirectional, there is acknowledgment that violence directed against women is more persistent and dangerous. Strategies for treatment of men have been largely unsuccessful, and studies of women centered approaches to prevention are in their infancy. An emerging concept in the brain-behavior field is the recognition of genetics as a powerful influence on aggressive and violent behaviors. Mouse models of human health and disease have facilitated our understanding of the role of genetics in the manifestation of these traits. There is a need to push the boundaries of research on intimate partner violence by adopting biosocial approaches to understand its causes.
