discovered source of evil

- Scientists have discovered that a little area is active in the brains before aggression occurs. This is an important discovery, because that they ever hope to curb bullying and sexual immorality.

The results come from a study in mice by the University of New York. An area in the hypothalamus is activated before violence occurs. The hyphothalamus is a part of the brains where our hormones, nerve signals and the feeling of hunger be arranged.

Once this study the scientists could lead to the extermination of unwanted behavior. 'This will require more research,' says assistant professor Dayu Lin told Sky News. 'In the future we can try to counter all kinds of behavior, from sexual immorality to bullying. '

In addition, people should also be examined. This study used strong male mice trained to attack weaker males. Scientists do not know whether the results also apply to humans.

The researchers hope that drugs can be made to the specific area in the brains. Another proposal is more drastic: brain activity can be monitored constantly. Health and safety experts can then be alerted to the aggressive attack.

That kind of drastic measures will have to deal with 'ethical and legal' difficulties, Lin said. Such measures can not be expected soon.
