“…In mice, the early work of Collins (1968Collins ( , 1969Collins ( , 1975 has been extended and elegantly developed over a long period by Fred Biddle and Brenda Eales. Their genetic dissection of paw preference, looking at mice of different strains reared in symmetric and asymmetric worlds, has shown how short-term and longterm memory result in a gradual learning and also an adaptability that is perhaps under the control of two genetic loci (Biddle and Eales, 2006;Ribeiro et al, 2011Ribeiro et al, , 2014.…”

“…Egyptian spiny mice (A. cahirinus), the principal host of P. chephrenis, lack fur on their pinnae and they do not have their characteristic spines around their head, so fleas are readily observed feeding in these areas. Finally, most individual rodents are right-pawed (Agulova et al, 2010;Kutlu et al, 2012;Ribeiro-Carvalho et al, 2010;Ribeiro et al, 2014) and begin their grooming sequence at the right side of their head (Berridge, 1990). Thus, a speculative but logical sequence of events related to flea avoidance of host grooming could explain directional asymmetry favouring the sinistral side in P. chephrenis.…”

“…I studied pawpreference, as a measure of laterality, in mice with different degrees of dysmyelination in the brain, to understand how myelin is regulating the establishment and maintenance of one possible circuit responsible for this behavior. The paw-preference test has been proven as a reliable test for the analysis of laterality in rodents (Barnéoud and Van der Loos, 1993;Collins, 1968;Collins et al, 1993;Manhães et al, 2003;McManus, 1992;Ribeiro et al, 2014;Ribeiro-Carvalho et al, 2010;Signore et al, 1991;Takeda and Endo, 1993;Waters and Denenberg, 1994). Even though it was initially developed to assess the heritability of handedness in mice, nowadays variations of this test are widely used to understand circuits implicated in reaching movements (Azim et al, 2014;Ellens et al, 2016;Guo et al, 2015;Hira et al, 2015;Lai et al, 2015;Wang et al, 2017).…”
