The paper shows optogenetic activation of dorsal raphe serotonin neurons in mice causes brain-wide activation, which is reduced under anesthesia.

The paper develops a reinforcement learning model to capture choice behavior during progressive ratio tasks, finding that the Perseverance model with choice traces best explains behavioral responses to drug effects.

The paper shows that larger reward expectations in mice are associated with slower dopamine rise and larger dopamine dip in the ventral striatum during task performance.

This paper classifies sleep stages in head-fixed mice using pupil dynamics and an LSTM model, achieving higher accuracy than a feed forward neural network.

This study shows that population-level activity of dorsal raphe 5-HT neurons oscillates during NREM sleep, influencing EEG and EMG patterns, and suggests similar activity in humans.

This paper introduces a flexible annotation atlas for the mouse brain that allows combining or dividing brain structures while maintaining anatomical hierarchy, improving ROI consistency across studies.

This study identifies reproducible resting-state networks in the mouse brain across multiple centers using standardized rsfMRI analysis.
