👏 A huge congratulations to Drs. @herbertwu.bsky.social and Sai Ma for receiving the 2025 Glickenhaus Research Scholar Award.🎉 Here, they discuss their work, "Neural Activity-Dependent Regulation of Transcriptomic Landscape: A Novel Approach to #Addiction". 👉 www.youtube.com/watch?v=nN9W...

Super excited to share the first cooperative foraging paradigm in freely interacting mouse pairs! Stable leader and follower roles emerge spontaneously and predict learning. Well-trained mice show stereotyped, role-specific “behavioral motifs” absent in naive animals (1/5) doi.org/10.1101/2025...

Fascinating! The use of social gaze seems quite complicated in these cooperating marmosets

Super excited to share this new collaborative work - marmosets use diverse and highly flexible strategies when they cooperate. These strategies are powerfully determined by both social factors (sex, dominance, familiarity) & individual partner identity. www.cell.com/current-biol...

Very excited to announce our latest paper uncovering circuit, cellular and molecular mechanisms underlying the formation and maintenance of social hierarchy, another terrific collaboration with @neurovenki.bsky.social, Vic Kapoor and Adam Nelson (not on bsky) www.sciencedirect.com/science/arti...

Molecular and neural control of social hierarchy by a forebrain-thalamocortical circuit

Many animal groups are organized hierarchically, which generates behavioral states that facilitate social interactions. Although generally stable, soc…
