Bad news for mouse poker players: Their facial movements offer “tells” about decision-making variables that the animals track without always acting on them, according to a study published today in Nature Neuroscience. My latest for @thetransmitter.bsky.social www.thetransmitter.org/motor-behavi...
Facial movements telegraph cognition in mice
If you give a mouse a decision, its thought process may show on its face.

Pleased to have this review out in @cp-trendsneuro.bsky.social. In it we discuss various aspects of the intersection between foraging behaviors and neuroscience, and offer some future directions: www.sciencedirect.com/science/arti...
Foraging as an ethological framework for neuroscience
The study of foraging is central to a renewed interest in naturalistic behavior in neuroscience. Applying a foraging framework grounded in behavioral …

Very interesting work on cooperative foraging!:)
Super excited to share the first cooperative foraging paradigm in freely interacting mouse pairs! Stable leader and follower roles emerge spontaneously and predict learning. Well-trained mice show stereotyped, role-specific “behavioral motifs” absent in naive animals (1/5)

Great thread and interesting research!:)
🚨Second PhD chapter is out today! We show that elephants gesture intentionally to ask humans for food using many different gesture types!
