| Program Description |
While there is biological evidence for circadian mood fluctuation, it can be challenging to quantify mood objectively. Our research focuses on exploring behavioral entropy (BehEnt) as an objective mood phenotype in mice that can be measured across various lifestyle modalities. To test its universality, we create an artificial neural network using reinforcement learning. By leveraging the connections between mood rhythm and circadian rhythms, we aim to uncover the underlying neural mechanisms common to BehEnt reorganization, which may provide a better understanding of the biological basis of mood disorders. |
