The paper shows that a line attractor in the hypothalamus modulates aggression in mice during feeding, with hunger enhancing aggressiveness but prolonged starvation reducing it.

The paper identifies a population code in VMHdmSF1 neurons that encodes predator imminence and internal states during predator encounters in mice.

The paper identifies line attractor dynamics in hypothalamic neurons during aggressive behavior and shows their intrinsic properties and functional connectivity.

The paper shows that neuropeptidergic signaling is necessary for line attractor dynamics in the ventromedial hypothalamus encoding aggressiveness.

The paper shows that cholinergic inputs to the claustrum co-release acetylcholine and GABA, differentially affecting cortical and subcortical projection neurons to alter network efficiency and output discriminability.

The paper shows that hypothalamic neural activity follows attractor-like dynamics during the estrus cycle, which are hormone-regulated and linked to sexual receptivity.

The paper identifies an approximate line attractor in the VMHvl that encodes aggression intensity through slow-ramping dynamics in Esr1 neurons.

The paper identifies local neural subnetworks in jellyfish that coordinate feeding behavior without centralized control.
