- You have to read @kelseytea.bsky.social excellent work on dexterity in deer mice evolved in forest vs prairie habitats. A powerful example of cross species comparisons to study principles of motor control ✅
- 🧠🌟🐭 Excited to share some of my postdoc work on the evolution of dexterity! We compared deer mice evolved in forest vs prairie habitats. We found that forest mice have: (1) more corticospinal neurons (CSNs) (2) better hand dexterity (3) more dexterous climbing, which is linked to CSN number🧵
