The need for automated and efficient systems for tracking full animal pose has increased
with the complexity of behavioral data and analyses. Here we introduce LEAP (LEAP …

Highlights•New automated methods permit characterization of the full repertoire of an
animal's behavior.•Quantification of dynamic sensory stimuli in combination with behavioral …

The generation of acoustic communication signals is widespread across the animal
kingdom,, and males of many species, including Drosophilidae, produce patterned courtship …

Advances in optical neuroimaging techniques now allow neural activity to be recorded with
cellular resolution in awake and behaving animals. Brain motion in these recordings pose a …

Deciphering how brains generate behavior depends critically on an accurate description of
behavior. If distinct behaviors are lumped together, separate modes of brain activity can be …

Diverse animal species, from insects to humans, utilize acoustic signals for communication.
Studies of the neural basis for song or speech production have focused almost exclusively …

A quantitative understanding of how sensory signals are transformed into motor outputs
places useful constraints on brain function and helps to reveal the brain's underlying …

Motion tracking is a challenge the visual system has to solve by reading out the retinal
population. It is still unclear how the information from different neurons can be combined …

We present a high-throughput optogenetic illumination system capable of simultaneous
closed-loop light delivery to specified targets in populations of moving Caenorhabditis …
