Abstract
Identical and Still Different: Even in monozygotic twins reared together, there are always observable differences reflecting the influence of individual responses. Freund et al. (p. 756 ; see the Perspective by Bergmann and Frisén ) developed an inbred mouse model for studying the environmental influences on genetically identical animals and examined their effects on behavioral and neural development.Keywords
