Publication — Rodents love to gnaw… which can be cute or annoying (e.g., when they decided to destroy my car wiring). But our new collaborative study published in Neuron uncovers why. Led by Dr. Xinyu Su and Bo Duan Lab, we discovered that incisor tactile input is relayed by a sensorimotor-motivational circuit to drive gnawing. Congratulations to all the authors!
