If you want to explore the data in more detail and see how your favorite species fares, I put together some interactive graphs. I'm actually surprised these aren't standard in this day and age, couldn't include it in SI. brainneuronnumbers.netlify.app

We just got funding for more bird #brain research! Stay tuned for water birds, hornbills and suboscines 🤩 On top of the 6yr grant with Mathias Osvath on "The Evolution of Minds", combining neuroscience, cognitive zoology and paleontology. How smart were the #dinosaurs?

They nailed it, 100% individualized indeed😆 Anyway, what do you find ResearchRabbit most useful for? Maybe exploring a new topic? 🐰 ResearchRabbit #AcademicChatter

My postdoc advisor from back in the days Niclas Kolm (not on twitter) is looking for a postdoc to work on three different selection lines: brain size, sociality, telencephalon size. Great place, great mentor, great project - apply!

The deadline for abstract submission to #ECCN10 has been extended until May 31st. Bring your students along, the conference fee is very affordable and it's always great to have more young minds around! web.natur.cuni.cz/eccn10

There is still time to apply for a cool PhD project looking at the number and distribution of synapses in vertebrates using cutting-edge microscopy techniques. Funding is guaranteed for 4 years and you'd be based in wonderful Prague❤️ stars-natur.cz/phd-positions/…
