DESCRIPTION:Elisabeth Binder\, Alon Chen\, Alexandre Dayer\, Ron de Kloet\
 , Cornelius Gross\, Isabelle Mansuy\, Robert Pawlak\, Carmen Sandi\nStress
  has a major impact on mental health. Recent work is unraveling the molecu
 lar mechanisms –including genetic factors- that either predispose for vu
 lnerability to stress or that translate stress effects into neurobiologica
 l alterations. \n\nThe goal of this Symposium is to address these question
 s by revising emerging concepts in the field of psychiatric neuroscience a
 nd genetics (gene x environment interactions\; early life experiences\; ep
 igenetic influences) as well as to the main methodologies in the field (ge
 nome wide and epigenetic analyses\; mutant mice\; other genetic manipulati
 ons). The Symposium includes a widespread overview of neurotransmitter\, n
 europeptides\, and steroid hormone receptors that play a key interplay in 
 mediating stress effects into neural and behavioral alterations.\n\n*** RE
