    The same etiological context can result in disparate phenotypes, and a single trait can result from different contexts, due to complex, many-to-many mappings from genes to intermediate (neurobiological, cognitive) and behavioral phenotypes. Understanding this organism-environment system requires the multi-level, multi-population, and multi-species approach our IGERT community takes.
