Our new @natureneuro paper is out!

We employed circuit manipulations in transgenic WILD MICE, revealing a sexually dimorphic role of oxytocin neurons in social conflict.

An admired team effort led by @ItsikSofer with our programmer Silvia Chuartzman

VERY excited to share our new paper in @CurrentBiology on sex differences in dominance hierarchy, in groups of WILD mice.
A fun collaboration with @UriAlonWeizmann

Assigning the appropriate animal model for the scientific question, rather than adapting the scientific question to the available/convenient model.
Great work and important advocacy for the need to use diverse animal models.

Tali Kimchi's lab @WeizmannScience is hiring!
We are looking for motivated post-docs & grad students, to take part in an exciting new project, studying social behavior in the solitary blind mole rat (Spalax).
Please share
