DESCRIPTION:Social interactions are essential for animals to survive\, rep
 roduce\, raise their young. Over the years\, my lab has attempted to decip
 her the unique characteristics of social recognition: what are the unique 
 cues that trigger distinct social behaviors\, what is the nature and ident
 ity of social behavior circuits\, how is the function of these circuits di
 fferent in males and females and how are they modulated by the animal phys
 iological status? In this lecture\, I will describe our recent progress in
  understanding how the brain participates in the positive and negative con
 trol of adult-adult social interactions\, providing a new framework to und
 erstand the regulation of social behaviors in health and disease. Finally\
 , I will describe our recent work uncovering how specific brain circuits a
 re able to direct adaptive changes in behavior during sickness episodes in
  mice.
