After last week publication from the lab on circuits of social isolation/satiety, today we publish a different line of research by @harriskaplan.bsky.social et al., on the development trajectories of hypothalamic POA cell types driving survival and social behavior.

In our new paper @dulaclab.bsky.social, we investigated a fundamental question in social neuroscience: the origin of "sociality" (the need of being together) at the levels of behavior, neuron type, neural circuit and sensory modulation. (Detailed digest below) (1/7)

Our new study from @dulaclab.bsky.social led by the amazing @dingliu.bsky.social . We identify the neural circuit that responds to social isolation consisting two distinct neuronal populations. We also demonstrate that lack of touch leads to emergence of social need.

Please look at the 🧵 from @dingliu.bsky.social summarizing our discovery of brain-wide circuits controlling the emergence and satiation of social drive during social isolation vs grouping

Soft touch quells loneliness in mice
Touch modulates one of two dueling types of hypothalamic neurons that, thermostat-like, balance an animal’s drive for social interaction.

Our paper @dulaclab.bsky.social on social homeostasis is online today! We characterized “social rebound” behavior after social isolation in multiple mouse strains and revealed its neural basis. Intriguingly, soft touch plays a key role in satisfying social need!
