English term or phrase: critical period
Uno studio sulle relazioni recettori/neurotrasmettitori sul controllo dell'ansia:
mi chiedevo se c'è n traducente specifico per critical period o va tradotto letteralmente.

The aim is to study the molecular basis of anxiety disorders and how perturbations in early life prime the brain for altered emotionality in adulthood.
The researchers are developing specific mice strains to explore, identify and characterise the changes in the brain cells that cause anxiety.
An important part of the research is exploration of the **critical period** for interactions between serotonin and maternal care on anxiety.
(...)
This will include the identification of **critical periods** in anxiety development in brain cells, the clarification of gene/environment interactions and the generation of biochemicals with anti-anxiety effects.
