Journal ArticleDOI
Neuroscience Needs Behavior: Correcting a Reductionist Bias
John W. Krakauer,Asif A. Ghazanfar,Alex Gomez-Marin,Malcolm A. MacIver,David Poeppel,David Poeppel +5 more
TL;DR: A more pluralistic notion of neuroscience is advocated when it comes to the brain-behavior relationship: behavioral work provides understanding, whereas neural interventions test causality.
Journal ArticleDOI
Big behavioral data: psychology, ethology and the foundations of neuroscience
TL;DR: It is argued that 'big behavioral data' presents challenges proportionate to its promise and described how these challenges might be met through opportunities afforded by the two rival conceptual legacies of twentieth century behavioral science, ethology and psychology.
Journal ArticleDOI
Active sampling and decision making in Drosophila chemotaxis.
TL;DR: It is shown that chemotaxis in Drosophila melanogaster larvae is an active sampling process analogous to sniffing in vertebrates, and it is suggested that larvalChemotaxis represents an intermediate navigation strategy between the biased random walks of Escherichia Coli and the stereo-olfaction observed in rats and humans.
Journal ArticleDOI
Reproducibility and replicability of rodent phenotyping in preclinical studies.

TL;DR: The scientific community is increasingly concerned with the proportion of published “discoveries” that are not replicated in subsequent studies, and the general consensus was that the issue is prevalent and of concern, and should be addressed at the statistical, methodological and policy levels.
Journal ArticleDOI
Dynamical feature extraction at the sensory periphery guides chemotaxis

TL;DR: It is found that OSNs can act as differentiators that transiently normalize stimulus intensity—a property potentially derived from a combination of integral feedback and feed-forward regulation of olfactory transduction.
