About the talk:
Social experiences can have lasting changes on behavior and affective state. We combine quantitative tools for behavioral analysis with a variety of techniques for neural recording and perturbation to understand how nodes in the brain’s subcortical “social decision-making network” encode and transform aggressive motivation to action.

Short description of Dr. Falkner's research: Neural circuits for social motivation and action
