Characterization of Social Status-Dependent Neuromodulation in Zebrafish (Danio rerio)
Miller, Thomas H (East Carolina University, 2017-06-28)In zebrafish (Danio rerio), social interactions between adult males consist of a series of aggressive encounters that ultimately lead to the formation of stable hierarchies of either socially dominant or subordinate animals. ... -
SOCIAL REGULATION OF THE ENDOCANNABINOID SYSTEM IN ZEBRAFISH MOTOR CIRCUITS
Orr, Stephen A (East Carolina University, 2018-07-20)Social status-dependent modulation of neural circuits has been investigated extensively in vertebrate and invertebrate systems. However, the effect of social status on shifting the balance in activation between competing ... -
THE EFFECT OF SOCIAL EXPERIENCE ON THE SYNERGISTIC NEUROMODULATION OF MOTOR CIRCUITS
Clements, Katie N (East Carolina University, 2022-07-15)Forming social groups is a critical adaptive strategy for the survival of many animal species, where conflict between members can result in dominance relationships. Dominance relationships are often formed through aggressive ... -
The Effects of Social Status on Dopaminergic Regulation of Neural Circuit Activation and Behavior
Clements, Katie N. (East Carolina University, 2017-07-19)Social hierarchies can be observed within communities across many species and allow for proper allocation of resources. When forming social hierarchies, animals that display the most aggressive behaviors generally emerge ...
