Exciting new research on bat migration! 🦇🧭📻📡〰️
Can human-generated electromagnetic noise influence the migratory behavior of pipistrelle bats? Congratulations to @olindecke.bsky.social and his team on their publication in @science.org! Learn more: doi.org/10.1126/science.aei2381
✨️💜 Women's power 💜✨️
At today's @sfb1372.bsky.social meeting we had discussion on #diversity #equity and #inclusion and are solidary with #WomensStrikeDay #OhneUnsStehtAllesStill #WomenInSTEM 💜👩🔬🧪🙎♀️💜
At its core: a non-magnetic virtual reality dome where scientists can simulate all six sensory dimensions under controlled conditions — from magnetic fields to light pollution. 🧭

With up to €99 million in funding, NaviGate could take research on migration, sensory biology, and neurosensory science to a whole new level, with important implications for conservation, biodiversity, and future technologies.
🌍 The goal: a deep, interdisciplinary understanding of animal navigation!
Huge thanks to the SFB team for a fantastic spring meeting at Thülsfelder Talsperre! 🌿 Inspiring exchanges, poster sessions, walk & talks, and working groups on DEI and gender equity for #InternationalWomensStrike made it a true boost for collaboration and team spirit. 🌱
“Empowered women empower women.” 👭
As we celebrate International Women's Day, we asked our fantastic senior female scientists to share a few words for the next generation of researchers; about curiosity, resilience, and lifting each other up along the way.
