Social and environmental cues mask circadian activity patterns in a highly social shell-dwelling cichlid fish

The paper shows that social and environmental cues mask circadian activity patterns in shell-dwelling cichlid fish, revealing new relationships between circadian rhythms and sociality.

Widespread temporal niche partitioning in an adaptive radiation of cichlid fishes

This study shows that temporal niche partitioning, through distinct activity patterns, contributed to the adaptive radiation of cichlid fishes in Lake Tanganyika.

Hierarchical recurrent state space models reveal discrete and continuous dynamics of neural activity in C. elegans

A hierarchical state space model splits optical neural recordings into linear segments and pools partial data across worms, recovering discrete states whose transitions match hand-labelled crawling, reversals and turns.
