Comparison of multiple video tracking-based behavioral summary approaches for compound discrimination

Scalar keypoint aggregates matched Keypoint-MoSeq, VAME, SimBA and A-SOiD at discriminating eight drug-dose treatments across 314 mouse open-field recordings; social context did not improve recall.

Social Context Restructures Behavioral Syntax in Mice

This study uses motion sequencing to analyze how social context affects mouse behavior, finding that a minority of behavioral units change in response to spatial proximity, not direct social contact.

Long-term adaptation of prefrontal circuits in a mouse model of NMDAR hypofunction

This study investigates the long-term effects of subchronic PCP treatment on prefrontal circuits in mice, revealing alterations in cognitive performance, gamma oscillations, and synaptic connectivity associated with schizophrenia endophenotypes.

How much fear is in anxiety?

This study identifies distinct behavioral and neural correlates of anxiety-like behavior in mice through selective breeding and neuroimaging.

The role of m6A-RNA methylation in stress response regulation

This paper investigates how m6A RNA methylation in the brain is regulated by stress and shows its role in fear memory, transcriptome response, and synaptic plasticity, with implications for stress-related disorders.
