My research inspired @samillingworth.com to write this poem. That's such a beautiful act :) thepoetryofscience.scienceblog.com/4134/truing-...

Thank you! 🙏

Spatiotemporal computations in the insect celestial compass - Nature Communications Insects use the sun for navigation, compensating for its movement throughout the day; a process that remains poorly understood. This study proposes a model of how oscillatory signals of clock neurons ...

🧭🧠 How insects do trigonometry to find their way

A new study shows how insect brains might calculate the sun’s position using internal clocks and trigonometric circuits.

Could this unlock solar-based navigation for future robots?
