DESCRIPTION:Dayu Lin\, NYU Neuroscience Institute\, New York\, USA\nAggres
 sion is an innate behavior across animal species. It is essential for comp
 eting for food\, defending territory\, securing mates\, and protecting fam
 ilies and oneself. Since initiating an attack requires no explicit learnin
 g\, the neural circuit underlying aggression is believed to be genetically
  and developmentally hardwired. Despite being innate\, aggression is highl
 y plastic. It is influenced by a wide variety of experiences\, particularl
 y winning and losing previous encounters. Numerous studies have shown tha
 t winning leads to an increased tendency to fight while losing leads to 
 flight in future encounters. In the talk\, I will present our recent findi
 ngs regarding the neural mechanisms underlying the behavioral changes caus
 ed by winning.\n\nRecent papers:\nOsakada\, T.\, Yan\, R.\, Jiang\, Y.\, W
