Excited to share the first cooperative foraging paradigm in freely interacting mice! Robust leader–follower roles emerge spontaneously and predict learning. Well-trained mice adopt stereotyped, role-specific behavioral motifs absent in naive animals (1/5)

After two years of submission and revision, my PhD work is finally online!!!! Proof that perseverance is a virtue. Kudos to my advisor, collaborators and lab members!

An's passing has been confirmed this morning. The situation suggests that she passed without suffering.

To those who have reached out with kind thoughts, thank you.

#MontréalFire Day 5 after An's missing
Her parents' Canada Visa was approved yesterday. High living costs in Canada & US + travel will be a big burden on the family’s financial situation. We are raising funds to help cover their travel/living expenses: https://t.co/vsu9NUdHF5

Dear Cosyne Community,

Last week, An Wu, a postdoc in the Komiyama lab at UCSD
who presented at this year’s meeting, has been reported missing. Our current information is that after Cosyne, she stayed at a building that burnt down in fire in Old Montreal.

My friend (An Wu, Komiyama lab, UCSD, tiny little Asian girl with so much energy) who went to Cosyne (Montreal) was missing after the old Montreal fire. Shout out to any cosyne participants who might have seen her in the recent two days. #cosyne23 @CosyneMeeting

[Bin Yu @BioIntelligeNet]

@CBCMontreal My friend was in an Airbnb in the building. We cannot contact her now! Does anyone see an Asian female around there? Any info helps!

[An Wu @SearchForAnWu]

Today is Day 4 after An’s missing.
The Montreal police are investigating the scene of the accident, however,there is no further information avalibale about An Wu’s whereabouts.

Friends, we need your help. An Wu, a postdoc from UCSD is missing post-Cosyne. We're trying to locate her. We're worried she may have been staying at a building that had a bad fire this week. If you have any information about where An was staying or last seen please contact me.
