🧠 New by Codol et al. who show that #MotorCortex dynamics are remarkably conserved across #mice, #monkeys, and #humans. Despite very different #behaviors, #NeuralPopulation activity follows similar dynamical rules on low-dimensional #manifolds. Species differences arise mainly from the geometry of trajectories within this shared #DynamicalSystem.

#ITByte: The #Internet of #Behaviors (IoB) is an area that seeks to understand how, when and why humans use technology to make purchasing decisions.

IoB combines three fields of study: behavioral science, edge analytics and the Internet of Things (IoT).

Body language expert shares how to spot a fake smile from a real one and it’s all in the eyes

I wish everyone a happy and healthy start into the #NewYear 2026. In my New Year's Eve post, I here report on aspects of #dog #behaviors and its relationships to humans. #Herding #dogs, for example, have the specific ability to #communicate not only with #humans but also with their grazing #livestock. H. Jeong et al. (2025) addressed the "#Genomicevidence for behavioral adaptation of herding dogs" in their study.

In a study different #behaviors in #anthosts and #antparasites between populations of each of them were discovered being related i.a. to #temperature and humidity and thus on the effects of #climaticchange, based on these species: the "slave-making ant" #Temnothorax americanus, and its host, the ant Temnothorax longispinosus (#Myrmicinae).

In that context I would be interested in the climate change effects on non-ant parasites and commensals, such as #phoreticmites.
