This study uses a habituation paradigm to show sequential activation of immediate early genes in octopus brain regions during memory formation.

This study documents the behavioral repertoire of lab-reared Octopus maya, identifying 21 distinct behaviors across six classes and diurnal activity patterns.

The paper describes an open science project where students recorded electrophysiological responses in plants to stimuli, finding 60% of plants showed delayed responses with conduction velocities of 2-9 mm/s.
