Rats and mice share common ethologically relevant parameters of exploratory behavior
Behavioural Brain Research, 2001Detailed studies of rat exploratory behavior reveal that it consists of typical behavior patterns having a distinct structure. Recently we have developed interactive software that uses as input the automatically digitized time-series of the animal's location for the visualization, analysis, capturing and quantification of these patterns.

Most odontocetes have multilayered sophisticated societies, probably relying much on living together for several ...

Mouse feeding behavior: ethology, regulatory mechanisms and utility for mutant phenotyping
Behavioural Brain Research, 2001Ingestive behaviors, feeding and drinking, constitute unconditioned, obligatory functions that are tightly regulated in the rodent according to demands of the external and internal milieu. Dependent measures of food intake have been used extensively in rats to infer the identity and function of neurochemical pathways, which mediate energy balance.

Ethology, 1992
AbstractI review Tinbergen's “four problems of biology,” their antecedents, and their subsequent development in the hands of other writers. As they have been developed from writer to writer the “problems” have been transformed and altered in subtle ways, some of which appear counterproductive.
