Satiation state-dependent dopaminergic control of foraging in Drosophila
TL;DR: A simple open field assay is developed that allows flies to freely perform multiple steps of the foraging sequence, and it is shown that two distinct dopaminergic neural circuits regulate measures of foraging behaviors.
Hypothalamic neurons that mirror aggression
Taehong Yang,Daniel W. Bayless,Yichao Wei,Dan Landayan,Ivo M. Marcelo,Yangpeng Wang,Laura A. DeNardo,Liqun Luo,Shaul Druckmann,Nirao M. Shah +9 more
TL;DR: The authors found that the activity of individual VMHVLPR neurons in the mouse hypothalamus represents aggression performed by self and others, and used a genetically encoded mirror-TRAP strategy to functionally interrogate these aggression-mirroring neurons.

TL;DR: In this article, a mouse model of CMT type 2E (CMT2E) expressing human neurofilament light E396K (hNF-LE396K ), which develops decreased motor nerve conduction velocity, ataxia and muscle atrophy by 4 months of age.

TL;DR: In this paper , the authors provide perspectives on factors that impact cross-identity mentorship from individuals participating in Diversifying the Community of Neuroscience (CNS) R25 neuroscience mentorship program developed to increase diversity in the neurosciences.
Satiation State-dependent Dopaminergic Control of Food Seeking in Drosophila
TL;DR: Evidence is provided for active food seeking in well-fed flies that is separable from hunger-driven seeking and two distinct dopaminergic neural circuits regulate food-seeking behaviors.
