Let me introduce our new lab homepage.

We are looking for PhD students and one Postdoc that can start in November 2025.
Contact me if you are in to studying spatial memory of honeybees. @uni-wuerzburg.de
@neuroethology.org
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.....
#SfN25 Monday morning we present FERAL: a video-understanding tool for animal behavior detection without the need for tracking or pose estimation! FERAL detects single animal, social and collective behavior in the lab and the wild! Visit our poster at board ZZ5 and check more here: www.getferal.ai

🚨 New paper in @nature.com
We asked why two hippocampal areas with very different anatomy, CA3 and CA1, often seem to code space so similarly?
By recording bats flying up to 200m, we found that the difference was hidden by scale!

The hippocampus exhibits a CA3-to-CA1 coding transformation that combines fast learning with an efficient, compressed neural code.
