Abstract
In monogamous species, pair bonding leads to striking changes in social behavior and neural circuitry. We outline the cognitive building blocks of monogamous pair bonding in prairie voles (Microtus ochrogaster), as well as opportunities afforded by the species to investigate diverse mechanisms underlying social experience-dependent plasticity and gain insights into the neurobiology of complex social behavior more generally.
