Research output: Contribution to journal/periodicalArticleScientificpeer-review

Abstract

In this issue of Neuron, Yokose et al. show that mice groom a mark on their forehead when exposed to a mirror. Comparing this behavior with hominids' helps carve self-awareness into its component parts and explore the neural mechanisms of its shared components.
