Weather, echolocation and bats: our podcast by @ASS_JASA is out where we discuss our new paper led by Léna de Framond
☀️☔️🦇🎼👂
ACROSS ACOUSTICS
Have you listened to our latest episode yet? Researchers know that bats will alter the calls they use for echolocation depending on their task or environment. Will they change their calls based on the weather? doi.org/10.1121/10.0019359
@AcFuncEcolGroup
Our nee work by @AHubancheva out as preprint! 🦇🧬🐞🪲🪳🐛🦟🐝🦋
Final version soon. Congrats Toni! 🎉
🦇 A dataset of consumed prey species and parasites based on the metabarcoding of 113 faecal samples from the greater and lesser mouse-eared #bats (Myotis myotis and #Myotis blythii).

Happy to share this work on the hunting behavior of greater mouse-eared bats 🦇🌕
Turns out, they like a big, chunky beetle even though they are much harder to catch than smaller moths

Warum rufen Fledermäuse🦇📢 SOOO LAUT wie ein Presslufthammer? Nur aber die Mopsfledermaus nicht?? Und was hat das mit ihrer Beute zu tun???

What bat researchers do. Today: occupational health check on allergy against meal worms (= bat food)… 🤧🦇🤪
Received my #habilitation certificate 🎓 in #Zoology from @LMU_Muenchen for my teaching and research at the @MPIforBI. Thank you very much 🙏to all great members of my team @AcFuncEcolGroup and all colleagues!!! 🍾🎉🦇🦋🦗

Episode 2 of season 2 is coming up this Tuesday! Holger Goerlitz (@batsmoths) and Abel Corver (@AbelCorver) will be discussing ingenious hunting strategies in bats and spiders. Abstracts can be found here: future-of-foraging-seminars.…
Toni’s @AHubancheva PhD research made it to the TV screen. Check it out!
@ARTEde is featuring my PhD work at @MPIforBI about 🦇and 🦗 in a 40 min documentary! As always thanks to my superb supervisor @batsmoths and my scientific family from the @AcFuncEcolGroup, @LauraStidsholt from @BioacousticsAU and Klaus Hochradel

Past few months were packed. Learnt a lot. Many new experiences. And much lying ahead: d-fine, my new employer, is hidden champion in „data & analytics“ = rated better, yet less well known than the big ones (McKinsey, BCG,…) linkedin.com/posts/d-fine_df…

Full support!
There was a failed push 2 yrs ago to create a #Bioacoustics #StackExchange; not enough user participation in the proposal stage. As the field grows and diversifies, I feel this was a real missed opportunity. I wonder how it would do if we broadened our reach & tried again 🤔
4) So, switching gears now: last grant ended in Jan = unclear future➡️I intensified job hunting in 2021.
I'd been 16 years on (mostly my own) third-party funding. As family, we weren’t willing anymore to put up with fixed-term contracts. #IchBinHannah
I wanted the academic holy grail (= permanent job), but have failed (in 🇩🇪 academia). While Unis would have hosted me for the duration of the #Heisenberg award, permanency wasn’t possible. So, this year also saw the closing of @AcFuncEcolGroup.

3) My #EmmyNoether grant @dfg_public ended last January➡️last fall was grant writing time. Really happy that @dfg_public interviewed me this spring and granted me a #Heisenberg award + 2 positions for PhD researchers to study Interspecific Acoustic Information Networks 🦇🦋🔊🎙️

2) I also used this summer to write my habiliation thesis @LMU_Muenchen, summarizing 27 post-PhD papers and 11 MS in prep. BIG KUDOS🙏🎉to all the great people @AcFuncEcolGroup and my collaborators, for working with me! Should you ever be interested: s.gwdg.de/gini99

1) first, a shameless advertisement for my new personal webpage, which is finally online: holger-goerlitz.de (still some work to be done, though)
Hi science twitter! The past year was packed😅. It’s about time for some updates! I’ll start with the academic bits:

Exciting PhD opportunities!
Only two days left to apply! If you have a background in acoustics or visual perception, please check out our PhD positions on ecology and evolution of multisensory camouflage. @SensoryEcology @RalSimon
Machine learning applied to bat echolocation, to identify species worldwide. Great! I think we're still scratching the surface of what modern ML can do for bioacoustic research.

Interesting new research: C elegans hears airborne sounds, using skin of the body surface, and unexpected mechanotransduction channels. This extends sense of hearing to new mechanisms, a new kind of 'ear', and novel taxa.

New #biologging of #bats paper out in @iScience_CP, lead by @LauraStidsholt @BioacousticsAU: we show how wild bats briefly decouple sound production from wingbeats to increase sensory flow during prey captures.
Congrats @LauraStidsholt !!🎉🎉🦇
