This study shows mice learn sparse path representations to navigate complex environments efficiently.

The paper shows lab mice reorganize existing behaviors into structured bouts to become efficient hunters in a dynamic environment.

The paper measures hundreds of amines and peptides in freely moving mice using microdialysis and mass spectrometry, revealing high-dimensional physiological dynamics and state transitions.

This study investigates how rats represent provisional decisions in dynamic environments, finding that Frontal Orienting Fields (FOF) encode evidence with temporal gain modulation and rapidly update during changes of mind.

This paper shows DEET repels mosquitoes through smell, taste, and contact, with contact mediated by leg tarsi, not proboscis taste receptors.

This study identifies a GPCR, str-217, in C. elegans that mediates DEET resistance by altering chemotaxis behavior through increased pause length.
