Psychobiology, also called biopsychology, is the scientific study of mental functioning and behavior in relation to other biological processes, or put another way, of the effects of cognition, emotions, and experience on animal physiology. Psychobiology also studies the biology of behavior and mental processes.
Psychotherapy, the humanities, and the healing arts are deeply engaged in the psychobiology of gene expression, neurogenesis, and mind-molecular communication to a degree that previous generations could not have dreamed of.
The psychobiology of gene expression contributes an understanding of the natural creative replay and resynthesis of human nature by integrating neuroscience, neurogenesis, and the numinosum in the humanities as well as therapeutic hypnosis, psychotherapy, and the holistic healing arts.
It is of essence in exploring the psychobiology of consciousness.
