Yor are interested in spending a Research Visit (4-12 weeks) in 2024 at the #zukunftskolleg Universität Konstanz? We have just opened a new call for applications for Early Career Researchers who are currently fellow at one of our partner institutes: uni-konstanz.de/zukunftskolleg…
Millions of locusts march in lockstep as though a choreographed swarm. Instead, the terrifying spectacle is a cannibalistic parade of predator and prey. Fascinating episode with Steven Strogatz at the mic and Iain Couzin listen.quantamagazine.org/jow-305-s from Quanta Magazine PRX
Preprint update alert! We show that the realized energy landscape expands as golden eagles age and improve their flight skills, resulting in larger flyable areas within the Alpine region. Safi_Lab @[email protected] Max Planck Institute of Animal Behavior biorxiv.org/content/10.110…

Spent an amazing time visiting the Centre for the Adv Study of Collective Behaviour and interacting a lot with Iain Couzin ‘s lab.
Crazy stuff going on from worms, termites, sharks, octopuses and wolves to robots and ping pong dynamics!
Lovely vibes visiting Germany and visiting good friends too!
