Seminar: Social science genetics: Examples from demography and social stratification
Social science genetics -- sometimes denoted sociogenomics -- is the emerging research field that is the interface between conventional social sciences and genetics. By combining data and methods from these two fields, we obtain new insights about both how both environmental and genetic factors contribute to variation in individual outcomes and ultimately social structures.
