What’s even cooler than #bats? Yes - bats surfing storm fronts during dark & blustery nights!🦇😃New research shows that noctule bats harness warm tailwinds to save energy during their migratory journeys mpg.de/23893833/1216-ornr-ba… @MPI_animalbehav @CBehav @EdwardHurme @dechmannlab

Scientistshave developed an #AI-based control strategy that enables individual laser-driven #microrobots within a swarm to cooperate, like ants or termites, to manipulate objects. @UniKonstanz @CBehav

Happy to have hosted professor Florian Engert from the @EngertLab here at the @UniKonstanz who shared his exciting work on analyzing heart rate and attention in #zebrafishlarvae to gain new insights into decision-making behavior.

Thanks! Excited to celebrate photography thanks to the @RSocPublishing photo competition! And congrats to @AugustPala with whom I’m glad to share the award and part of a dream team with @icouzin @po7ooo and Luke Costello at @MPI_animalbehav and @CBehav! 🦈
What a fantastic shot! An aerial view of #sharks rounding up their prey has won the 2024 #Photography Competition @royalsociety! 🦈The photo was taken by postdoc @albi_angela, @MPI_animalbehav, who studies the predator-prey interactions of sharks and schools of #fish. 🥳

I am delighted and honored to have been awarded the Fyssen International Prize!
Sharing it with Jean-Louis Deneubourg makes it all the more special as he was instrumental to inspiring me to study collectives when I was a student. @CBehav @maxplanckpress

Thanks, @SalahTalamali, for visiting @CBehav of @UniKonstanz and presenting your cool research on sound wave manipulation, an interesting technology that could improve our animal experiments with prey levitation and invisible touch.

Glad for the award in this competition that combines science and photography, with each shot telling its own story. Proud of our contribution representing the efforts of our amazing team @AugustPala @icouzin @po7ooo and Luke Costello @MPI_animalbehav @UniKonstanz @MaRHECenter
A stunning bird’s-eye view of four sharks and their schooling prey has been announced as the overall winner of the @RSocPublishing Photography Competition 2024, run in association with @The_RPS. The hunt from above, from the behaviour category, is by Dr Angela Albi, a postdoctoral researcher at the Max Planck Institute of Animal Behaviour, who studies the predator-prey interactions of sharks and schools of fish.

Aus der Masse herausstechen als Weg zum Erfolg? Eine neue #UniKonstanz + @sfiscience Studie zeigt, dass es in manchen Situationen wichtiger ist, mit der bewertenden Person Gemeinsamkeiten zu haben, als um jeden Preis aufzufallen: t1p.de/abq5k @CBehav
