Excited to share our updated preprint on the neural basis of foraging decisions! This work was co-led by Michael Bukwich (twitterless, now at UCL) and me, with major contributions from co-authors, and the incredible animation is by Kristian J Herrera. (1/12) biorxiv.org/content/10.110โฆ

(1/n) Thrilled to announce our (me + Aditya Nair ~ เดเดฆเดฟ ) Nature paper is out! We uncovered causal evidence of a line attractor in the brainโa neural mechanism encoding emotional states like aggression. Machine learning (AI) helped us map it! ๐๐ง #Neuroscience #AI @NeuroscienceNews





We just wrote a primer on how the physics of sound constrains auditory perception: authors.elsevier.com/a/1jzSR3QW8S6Eโฆ Covers sound propagation and object interactions, and touches on their relevance to music and film. I enjoyed working on this with Vin Agarwal and James Traer.

My former PhD advisor Nachum Ulanovsky's new book, *Natural Neuroscience*, masterfully lays out the case that to truly understand brains we must study them in real-world, natural behaviors. A must-read for neuroscientists! The MIT Press @mitpress.bsky.social
