Explores the linkage between biology and politics. Practically, this translates into a variety of research foci : policy issues emerging from the life sciences (bioethics, health policy, sex preselection); evolutionary bases of human political phenomena; physiological bases of political thinking and behaviour; development of research methods to assay the linkage between biology and politics.
