Neurophysiologist at Illinois State University studying environmental influences on neurons and circuits.
Wolfgang Stein
We bring together neuroethologists, neurobiologists, ecologists, and environmental scientists to explore how rapid environmental change is reshaping the neural systems, animal behavior, and ecosystems that sustain life.
When: 07/25, 2026, 8AM-7PM, UBC Vancouver (Earth Sciences Bld. 1012).

Join us for a satellite meeting of the 2026 International Congress for Neuroethology in Vancouver, entitled “Neuroethology in a Changing World.”, organized by Stefan Pulver, Wolfgang Stein, and Martin Tresguerres. (1/3)
Attending the International Congress for Neuroethology next month? Don't miss two special opportunities to explore how neuroscience connects with our rapidly changing world. 1/4
Special thanks to this year's organizer of the Neuroethology GRC, Julie Simpson & @genmig.bsky.social. We had a fantastic week of great science, met colleagues or started collaborations. We are looking forward to the next GRC in 2 years.
2027 Co-Vice chairs: Jessica Fox & @scottjuntti.bsky.social
The final talk of this year’s Neuroethology GRC is given by Mark Frye from UCLA. Mark’s lab studies multimodal (vision & olfaction) navigation in flies.

Every neuroethology conference should have a leech talk. Thanks to Karen Mesce’s talk at the GRC, we appreciate the beauty of working with these creatures. She talks about restoring crawling after injury.

Neuroscientist @wolfgangstein.bsky.social is studying how nervous systems adapt to a changing planet in an unlikely spot: a crab's stomach. Learn more about this emerging field that links brain science with ecology to understand the biological impacts of a changing planet: bit.ly/3O4ljm7 #KavliNeuro
Carola Städele from the University of Göttingen takes us into the exciting sensory world of ticks. The Haller’s organ at the front legs are multisensory organs sensing humidity, vibrations but NOT CO2. It remains unclear where CO2 sensitive receptors are.
