Researchers at UCL find reduced social preference in isolated zebrafish is caused by stress and anxiety, not observed anti-social patterns.

A team of scientists at UCL, University of Cambridge and Radboud University developed an innovative method of studying naturalistic eye movements in mice and discovered similarities and differences with human eye movements.

Researchers identify specialised neural circuits that control reward-seeking and punishment-avoiding behaviour

While scientists have spent years mapping anatomical projections and monitoring activity from individual neurons, little is known about how signals sent by individual neurons relate to the larger, bidirectional communication that underlies complex behaviour. Neuroscientists at the Sainsbury Wellcome Centre report in Nature Neuroscience on a new approach that offers insight into these complex neural conversations.

Study finds multisensory basis of pup recognition by males using specific chemical and physical cues

Study highlights role of primary visual cortex in integrating head and visual movement signals.
