2020 is the Year of the Rat 🐁 A timely year then to put a twist on the classic #ratinmaze experiment. New Current Biology study looks at how rats explore mazes in groups... and uncovers the strategy that allows groups to outperform individuals. 1/3 doi.org/10.1016/j.cub.…

Lead author Mate Nagy Collective Behaviour - MTA-ELTE Lendulet Research did the work with Iain Couzin and @anflack when he was at MPIAB Max Planck Society and CASCB The study finds that superior search is a balance between individual and collective: concentrate on your own task but also pay attention to others. 2/3

After many years of work, finally out in Nature Communications - using bio-mimetic robots we discover a strategy for schooling that allows fish to exploit vortices generated by others. We then demonstrate that real fish employ our strategy to save energy! Centre for the Adv Study of Collective Behaviour nature.com/articles/s4146…

Our paper with Liang Li, Iain Couzin and co-authors is out in Nature Communications...
