This seems pretty obvious. But I'm skeptical about the small sample size...why only 13 mothers? Also, I'd be curious to know, given a bigger sample, if there are mothers who don't display these results and what implications that might have for child-rearing. Experiments on fathers would be cool too, as the article points out. Further, I wonder if they can do similar studies on animals...how cool would that be?
Quoted: A mother’s impulse to love and protect her child appears to be hard-wired into her brain, a new imaging study shows.

Fantastic article. While I believe that WHO does a phenomenal job in maintaining a high level of public health standards for all nations, let's face it...it's still a bureaucracy. We know bureaucracies are mostly slow, and for the large part inefficient since there are no "market solutions". But with a NGO structured like the Gates Foundation (more a for-profit business model than the typical NGO), it is driven by the market...there is a supply and demand for better health systems, addressing public health concerns, and cutting edge research.
While the Gates Foundation may appear monopolistic, in the sector of non-profits, I think it encourages more, generous philanthropy and competition -- isn't that better for non-profits in the end? After all, one of the biggest downfalls of non-profits, and reasons why many of them wither away is that they are bad managers of monetary and human resources, thereby making them less efficient.
Quoted: The audacity of the Gates Foundation may have unintended consequences, but things would be worse if UN bureaucracies still dominated the field
