@thackerybrown.bsky.socialHow fast can mice learn complex mazes? With @mameister4.bsky.social we reveal memory, generalization, latent learning, and remote credit assignment of mice in the Manhattan Maze. Do mice born without a cortex or hippocampus have them too? Check it out! www.biorxiv.org/content/10.6...

Show PostIf a slop generator can produce a "graphical abstract" considered suitable for publication "in minutes", then "graphical abstracts" don't add anything of material value to the publication.
Show PostNew paper on SLIMM, which replicates behavioural finding of a U-shape between expectancy and memory but fails to find interaction between subsequent memory effects and expectancy in HC & mPFC. @praykov.bsky.social royalsocietypublishing.org/rstb/article...
