First paper from our lab! Led by Emory graduate student Calvin Riiska, we found that skin microtextures remain intact in museum-preserved reptiles. Using this result, we found a new instance of convergent evolution in sidewinding! royalsocietypublishing.org/d…

Our newest preprint! Work led by Ben Dykstra (co-mentored by @gordonberman). Some of the first recordings from the iCA3 region during social behaviors. Ben found that iCA3 neurons more strongly represent social recognition information relative to iCA1 . biorxiv.org/cgi/content/shor…

Check out the @BagotLab latest publication in @NatureNeuro featuring @esiyer and me! Here, we identify sex specific roles for nucleus accumbens afferents from the ventral hippocampus and medial prefrontal cortex in encoding aversive information. 1/12 nature.com/articles/s41593-0…

Register now for Year 3 of our 5-day course on Machine Learning for Behavior! Pose estimation, supervised behavior classification, unsupervised clustering (MotionMapper/Moseq), and analysis of behavior dynamics. Bar Harbor in fall is not bad either. jax.org/autobehavior

Why are power laws and heavy-tailed distributions so widespread in animal behavior? We show how behavioral plasticity might be the minimal necessary ingredient w/ M Vergassola @LP_ENS_, Gautam Sridhar @wyartlab @ClaireWyart rb.gy/184fke (thread below) 1/12
