Bonding (the emotional bond from parent to child) and parent-child interactions are formed by a complex interplay of biological, psychological, and sociological factors. The mechanisms, including gender differences, are not yet clearly understood. We will explore the neurological bases related to parental emotions and cognition in the early postpartum period and the formation process of bonding, and aim to generate evidence that leads to family well-being.
