Complex Economic Behavior Patterns Are Constructed from Finite, Genetically Controlled Modules of Behavior

Summary: Complex ethological behaviors could be constructed from finite modules that are reproducible functional units of behavior. Here, we test this idea for foraging and develop methods to dissect rich behavior patterns in mice. We uncover discrete modules of foraging behavior reproducible across...
