The paper identifies a sex-dependent neural circuit from the locus coeruleus to the anterior cingulate cortex that modulates parental care in mice by influencing pup retrieval behavior.

This study shows that maternal care in mice is shaped by a reinforcement learning mechanism involving dopamine signals as the primary reward.

This study identifies Neurotensin-expressing neurons in the mouse IPAC that regulate energy balance by modulating feeding behavior and physical activity.
