Inhibitory hippocampus-medial septum projection controls locomotion and exploratory behavior [PDF]
Although the hippocampus is generally considered a cognitive center for spatial representation, learning, and memory, increasing evidence supports its roles in regulating locomotion.

Evolution of sideways locomotion in crabs [PDF]
The evolutionary change in the mode of locomotion is often a major evolutionary event, triggering diversification. Sideways locomotion is a defining feature of true crabs (Brachyura) and may have contributed to their ecological success.

Selection and the direction of phenotypic evolution
Predicting adaptive phenotypic evolution depends on invariable selection gradients and on the stability of the genetic covariances between the component traits of the multivariate phenotype.

Linking neural circuits to the mechanics of animal behavior in Drosophila larval locomotion
The motions that make up animal behavior arise from the interplay between neural circuits and the mechanical parts of the body. Therefore, in order to comprehend the operational mechanisms governing behavior, it is essential to examine not only the ...

Mechanisms of Variability Underlying Odor-Guided Locomotion
Changes in locomotion mediated by odors (odor-guided locomotion) are an important mechanism by which animals discover resources important to their survival. Odor-guided locomotion, like most other behaviors, is highly variable.

The ability to process and act upon incoming sounds during locomotion is critical for survival and adaptive behavior. Despite the established role that the auditory cortex (AC) plays in behavior- and context-dependent sound processing, previous studies ...

Exploring Neurobehaviour in Zebrafish Embryos as a Screening Model for Addictiveness of Substances
Tobacco use is the leading cause of preventable death worldwide and is highly addictive. Nicotine is the main addictive compound in tobacco, but less is known about other components and additives that may contribute to tobacco addiction.
