Behavioral ontogeny in a pelagic tunicate reveals the deep origins of chordate behavioral developmental plasticity.

The paper builds a behavioral atlas of Oikopleura dioica across its life cycle, revealing developmental changes in behavior and morphology that suggest deep evolutionary origins of chordate behavioral plasticity.

A nanobody-based proximity ligation assay detects constitutive and stimulus-regulated native Arc/Arg3.1 oligomers in hippocampal neuronal dendrites

The paper develops a nanobody-based PLA to detect and quantify native Arc/Arg3.1 oligomers in hippocampal neurons, revealing constitutive and stimulus-regulated complexes.

Development and validation of Arc nanobodies: new tools for probing Arc dynamics and function

The paper develops and validates Arc nanobodies to study Arc protein dynamics and function, showing their ability to bind Arc and enable live-cell labeling and purification.
