New mission for our SFB fellow Pauline - together with two historians of our university she will now be researching the question: were animals in antiquity the forerunners of modern navigation systems with their migrations and did they show people the way? uol.de/aktuelles/fe...

How migrating Australian moths find caves hundreds of miles away
Billions of nocturnal Bogong moths migrate up to 1,000 km to cool caves in the Australian Alps that they have never previously visited. New research shows how they may find their way there and back.
How do animals navigate? A recent study in @nature.com reveals that #BogongMoths use a stellar compass for their long-distance migration ✨️🧭🌏
I was asked for my opinion about this fascinating result by my dear colleagues @lundvision.bsky.social 🤩

Congrats to our SFB colleagues @shakedpa.bsky.social, Nachum Ulanovsky & coworkers @weizmanninstitute.bsky.social: They report in Cell that the replay of large environments in the hippocampus of fruit #bats is fragmented; this may facilitate memory chunking for hippocampal-neocortical communication

Götz & Nathalie have started catching today. Kamala was 3rd to safely return her #geolocator. Nathalie will be analyzing the track soon, adding Kamala to a subset of 140 other birds for which she has collected data on the #migratorybehaviour as part of her postdoc funded by @sfb1372.bsky.social.

Robin team with T30 - field work on a partial migratory robin population in Northern Germany.
spring has sprung and the #dreamteam is out in the forest. first #geolocator robins have been spotted and data already secured - such exciting times. we use #lotek radiotelemetry and light and pressure loggers to understand partial #migration in a European #robin population in Northern Germany.

Our group studies the neural mechanisms underlying spatial memory in insects. As central place foragers, honeybees begin their foraging trip at a fixed location, i.e., their nest. This site fidelity.....
Today, I signed my first contract as a principal investigator @uni-wuerzburg.de. My Emmy-Noether group can now officially start on 1st of May. If someone is interested working with me on the spatial memory of 🐝 as a PhD student or postdoc, contact me. More details: www.spatial-navigation.com
