Displaced aggression, such as lashing out at an unrelated individual after a frustrating experience, is a well-documented phenomenon in both humans and animals. A study conducted by researchers at the ...

Researchers tracked the behavior of mice using machine learning to understand how they handle aggressive behavior from other mice. The researchers' findings show that male mice deescalate aggressive ...

A new study led by Prof. Omry Koren and graduate student Atara Uzan-Yuzari from the Azrieli Faculty of Medicine at Bar-Ilan University has unveiled significant evidence connecting the gut microbiome ...

Neural activity in the cortical amygdala determines whether mice engage in aggressive or pro-social behavior, according to a new study. By performing a network analysis on whole-brain activity of male ...

Researchers at the Francis Crick Institute have found that hunger can make virgin female mice aggressive towards pups, but only in certain hormonal states. These mice would usually ignore other ...

A research group led by Joshua Neunuebel at the University of Delaware, USA, tracked the behavior of mice using machine learning to understand how they handle aggressive behavior from other mice. The ...

Is aggression part of our primate nature, wired into our systems because it helps us survive, or do we learn it from such seemingly innocent occupations as watching cartoons and wrestling matches on ...

Artistic rendering of mouse bait-and-switch. Male mice, subjected to agonistic interactions, escape and avoid conflict by exploiting nearby females to divert the attention of the pursuing aggressor.
