For decades, humans have been fascinated by wild animals’ instincts, like the annual two-thousand-mile migration of the monarch butterfly in North American, and the “imprint” behavior of newborn birds. Since these instincts are always displayed in stereotypical patterns in most individuals of a given species, the neural circuits processing such behaviors must be genetically hard-wired in the brain. Recently, with the development of modern techniques, including optogenetics, retrograde and anterograde virus tracing, and in vivo calcium imaging, researchers have been able to determine and dissect the specific neural circuits for many innate behaviors by selectively manipulating well-defined cell types in the brain. This book discusses recent advances in the investigation of the neural-circuit mechanisms underlying innate behaviors. | 出版日期 | Book 2020 | 关键词 | Neural circuits; Innate behavior; Optogenetics; Neuroscience; Survival instincts | 版次 | 1 | doi | https://doi.org/10.1007/978-981-15-7086-5 | isbn_softcover | 978-981-15-7088-9 | isbn_ebook | 978-981-15-7086-5Series ISSN 0065-2598 Series E-ISSN 2214-8019 | issn_series | 0065-2598 | copyright | The Editor(s) (if applicable) and The Author(s), under exclusive license to Springer Nature Singapor |
