A new study, done by Mohamed Kabbaj, neuroscientist at the FSU College of Medicine, finds that prairie vole’s rare partnerships are cemented by chemical changes on their genes, called epigenetic changes, that result from their sexual encounters. The results, published in Nature Neuroscience today, provide the first direct evidence of the link between epigenetics and monogamous bonding in voles.
