🐈👅 When a cat licks you, they aren't just trying to clean you – they’re designating you as a "preferred associate."
Animal behaviorists explain that this social grooming, or allogrooming, is a #behavior learned from their mothers to strengthen bonds and show trust.

There's a great talk by Juan Gallego on how low-dimensional #NeuralManifolds arise from biological constraints, remain invariant across states and inputs, and support cross-animal alignment. Examples span #HeadDirection rings, #gridcell tori, #MotorCortex prep vs movement, striatal timing dynamics, and C. elegans #behavior loops. Cool talk as it shows how #manifold-level structure can generalize across tasks and organisms.

🐒💭 A psychologist at #Utrecht University tested #chimpanzees at #Uganda’s Ngamba Island Sanctuary in five experiments using boxes and hidden food, finding they weigh evidence and change decisions when confronted with contradictory information. The results suggest rational thinking evolved in our primate ancestors and challenges the assumption that reasoned decision-making defines humanity.

🧠 New preprint by Kim et al. (2025) from David Anderson’s lab: A line #attractor maintains aggressiveness during feeding in “hangry” mice 🍔🐁. Using in vivo #CalciumImaging and #rSLDS modeling, they show how moderate fasting stabilizes an aggression-related attractor in #VMHvl, while prolonged fasting collapses it, linking hunger, motivation, and aggression through #PopulationDynamics:

The traditional mechanistic framework must give way to a richer understanding of how #brains actually generate #behavior over time.
