Some great recognition for Karen Cheney and colleagues in the Marshall lab - their research on a colour vision test for fish has been named the highlighted paper for the month in Journal of Experimental Biology. jeb.biologists.org Read more about the research here: qbi.uq.edu.au/article/2019/0…


I am extremely honoured to have been awarded an ARC Future Fellowship for more research on colour vision in fish (and other critters) UQ Science Visual Ecology UQ #colsci #sensoryecology. Commiserations to those who missed out this time.

New paper by Prof. Daniel Osorio and others show that cuttlefish use two distinct cognitive strategies to select a body pattern to match their seafloor background, which links nicely to a hierarchical motor control system doi.org/10.1016/j.cub.… Current Biology
