Topological data analysis captures complex behavioral dynamics during naturalistic social interaction between domestic ferrets

This study uses Temporal Mapper to analyze postural dynamics during naturalistic social interaction in ferrets, finding more complex and consistent state transitions during social activity.

Mouse strain and network-level activity differences underlie social decision-making

This study compares social decision-making in two mouse strains, finding strain-dependent differences in neural network activity associated with prosocial and selfish behaviors.

Separable Dorsal Raphe Dopamine Projections Mimic the Facets of a Loneliness-like State

The paper identifies distinct roles of three DRN dopamine neuron projections in social behavior and affective states through optogenetic and electrophysiological experiments.

Mind the gap: A systematic review and meta-analysisof how social memory is studied

This study reviews and analyzes social memory research in mice and rats over two decades, finding a narrow focus on short-term memory and underrepresentation of complex social dynamics.

Disentangled multi-subject and social behavioral representations through a constrained subspace variational autoencoder (CS-VAE)

This paper introduces a constrained subspace variational autoencoder (CS-VAE) to disentangle individual and social behavioral features in multi-subject settings, enabling analysis of latent variables for downstream tasks.

Selective Inhibitory Control Of Pyramidal Neuron Ensembles And Cortical Subnetworks By Chandelier Cells

This paper shows that chandelier cells selectively inhibit pyramidal neurons projecting to the basolateral amygdala, shaping communication between cortical networks.
