Individual age and reproductive activity are both major drivers of spatial movement and behavior in two large herbivore species, roe deer and Mediterranean mouflon #animalmovement Out now in this month's #AnimalBehaviour by Malagnino et al. doi.org/10.1016/j.anbe…

i wonder where this cutout is today on #DarwinDay …probably drifting on the shores of the Galápagos

We are looking at dinosaurs direct ancestors, birds, for #CharlesDarwin’s Birthday! These finches were collected in the Galápagos Islands in 1835. It was the variation in beak shapes that helped Darwin develop his theory of evolution through natural selection.🐦🧬🎉 📸Natural History Museum

Because #DarwinDay and #ValentinesDay are always so close together ... naturally, we can't resist ;)

Today, America is officially back in the Paris Climate Agreement. Let’s get to work.

The ComparativeCognitionSociety online conference starts on Wednesday. Friends, I have seen some of the prerecorded talks. If you haven’t already registered, you should. comparativecognition.org

Abstract concept learning in Paper wasps - great talk and experiment by Chloe Weise #CO3_2021

More excellent work at #CO3_2021 out of the Tibbetts Lab by @juanita_p_s about thee development of holistic versus featural processing in paper wasps face recognition.

So excited for ComparativeCognition ! Check out my talk under "Concept Learning" to hear about paper wasps and abstract concepts! #CO3_2021 #Umich

Chloe Weise I’m definitely going to check out your talk, but the Comparative Cognition Society is actually ComparativeCognitionSociety (This name similarity is entirely my fault. Though let’s blame @dbrodbeck a bit too, just for fun.) #CO32021 #CO3_2021

Dr. Lauren Guillette (she/her) Chloe Weise That was a great talk and neat result! I just watched it!

Come chat with me about abstract concept learning in paper wasps at 3:30! Wish it was on the beach though #CO32021@ComparativeCog

See you TODAY at 3pm for our EEB Virtual Seminar featuring JessMet presenting Causes and implications of sex differences in immune function

So excited for #ABS2021! Check out my talk tomorrow at 10am about abstract concept formation in Paper wasps! Animal Behavior Society

correction: my #ABS2021 talk is at 11:50am today! stop by if you’re interested in abstract concept formation!

DID YOU KNOW? The Biological Sciences Building University of Michigan BOASTS the WORLD'S LARGEST SMOKE CURTAIN! New on #EEBlog by Emily Laub featuring @juanita_p_s and Smokey Bear #AprilFoolsDay #NotAprilFools #UMichBSB Attn pls Guinness World Records myumi.ch/bRrb3 🙃😮🤩

🚨🌈#colsci recolorize: improved color segmentation of digital images (for people with other things to do) We picked common (challenging) use cases—texture/reflection, lighting variation, batch processing, combining w/ spectra, and more. Preprint: biorxiv.org/content/10.110… (🧵!)

I am so excited to share this press release about my recent publication 'Paper wasps form the abstract concept of same and different' in #procB. Link to the paper to come! Royal Society Publishing Wasps And Logical Reasoning. art2art.substack.com/p/wasps-and-lo…

Honored to have published my first first-author paper in #proceedingsB! Check it out if you are interested in abstract concept formation in paper wasps! …etypublishing-org.proxy.lib.umich.edu/doi/10.1098/rs…

Paper wasps can learn and apply the abstract concept of ‘same and different’ to stimuli of different types #ProcB ow.ly/2rCX50K4b0P Chloe Weise @E_Tibbetts UMich Ecology and Evolutionary Biology
