Animals chain movements into long-lived motor strategies, exhibiting variability across
scales that reflects the interplay between internal states and environmental cues. To reveal …

Nervous systems have evolved to combine environmental information with internal state to
select and generate adaptive behavioral sequences. To better understand these …

Bridging brain-scale circuit dynamics and organism-scale behavior is a central challenge in
neuroscience. It requires the concurrent development of minimal behavioral and neural …

Animals engaged in naturalistic behavior can exhibit a large degree of behavioral variability
even under sensory invariant conditions. Such behavioral variability can include not only …

Nervous systems have evolved to combine environmental information with internal state to
select and generate adaptive behavioral sequences. To better understand these …

Zebrafish larvae use stereotyped discrete swim bouts of various types to navigate their
environment. Their temporal sequence displays a complex structure, whose characteristics …

Background Variability is a hallmark of animal behavior. It contributes to survival by
endowing individuals and populations with the capacity to adapt to ever-changing …

Animal behavior often forms sequences, built from simple stereotyped actions and shaped
by environmental cues. A comprehensive characterization of the interplay between an …

In the absence of salient sensory cues to guide behavior, animals must still execute
sequences of motor actions in order to forage and explore. How such successive motor …
