Thank you to organisers Eleanor Caves Eleanor Caves, Sonke Johnsen Sonke Johnsen & Lorian Schweikert Lorian Schweikert and all who attended this week's Workshop 'Vision 2024: Building Bridges in Visual Ecology'. biologists.com/workshops/june… #BiologistsWorkshops

My first chapter is out! This was an enormously challenging project but I learned a lot and am very excited to share with you the hidden world of ultraviolet coloration in snakes. nature.com/articles/s4146…

🚨The (preliminary) program for the #icn2024berlin is online! Check it out and share the link ↘️ icn2024-berlin.org/front/content.… ↙️ Please use the hashtag above to refer to the conference! Looking forward to seeing you in Berlin🤩🤗

Looking for female PhD graduates interested in a #postdoc in our lab insect-vision.com Special funding call for ♀️ to apply for 3 years of postdoc funding. Super brief application! Crucial: mutual benefit in research interests and skills between group and candidate.

Exciting new gadget - a hyperspectral camera/imager that you can build for ~£350. It can measure radiance or reflectance, ~320-880nm, 9nm FWHM, customisable spatial resolution, enormous dynamic range, and a simple GUI for desktop or android. doi.org/10.1101/2024.0…

🚨We are delighted to announce that our new paper is out NOW in Current Biology 🦑🌅Here we show how #cuttlefish alter their #camouflage response under naturally occuring dynamic lighting ('water caustics')! 🔗authors.elsevier.com/sd/article/S09… 🧵A thread to find out more:

Hi people. I have a newly updated pre-print on ancestral state reconstruction that I'd love for you to check out. github.com/liamrevell/Rev… 1/5

Out in ProcB - Chemical defences indicate bold colour patterns with reduced variability in aposematic nudibranchs - rb.gy/s1jlaq. Data & thoughts on the ecology & evolution of aposematism, feat. our fave critters! 🐌🌊 micaToolbox #colsci Visual Ecology UQ Ecology of Vision

What colour is quinine solution for bees? How well do birds smell? Are monitor displays are the same as the real thing? And, most importantly, how much are our experiments jeopardised by not caring? With Joanna Brebner MariaLoconsole Daniel Hanley royalsocietypublishing.org/doi/10.1098/rs…

Our new meta-analysis on frequency-dependent selection across the Tree of Life is now published. Thanks to Miguel Gómez, Adam Siepielski, Ron Bassar and Simon Tye for a nice and productive collaboration: onlinelibrary.wiley.com/doi/10.1111/el…

Checking out camera trap images just got so much more colourful. 🐗🌈Meta just released its Segment Anything Model 2 (SAM 2) and it plays nicely with our wild boar piglets. WILDLABS Community AI at Meta #Tech4Wildlife #cameratrap

The ecoevo job list for 2024-2025 is out. This is for those who are looking for a faculty position or postdoc in ecology, evolutionary biology, etc docs.google.com/spreadsheets/d…

The nice kind of fieldwork! Much quiet, very rebreather🌊🤿🐫🐠Cruising around in the depths of Egyptian coral reefs with Dr Martin John How Ecology of Vision University of Bristol Biological Sciences

Every now and again I get to do something really cool for my job. Today was one of those days. Psychtoolbox rendered flying targets each with their own flying rules.

Yet another nudibranch on a journal cover! Thanks to Steve Smith for this lovely portrait of Chromodoris elisabethina. doi.org/10.1093/beheco… #coslci UQ Science University of Bristol Biological Sciences Visual Ecology UQ Ecology of Vision UQ News

We are super thrilled to meet 40+ participants from all over the world for our animal vision modelling & imaging workshop in Melbourne! Just like #ISBE2024, this has been in the making since before 2020. Good things take time! micaToolbox #colsci

It's been a fantastic micaToolbox workshop and first few days of the conference! Not without impact by the looks: Spotted at the Haiku board at #ISBE2024 😂
