Really looking forward to speaking about corvid cognition at the upcoming “Nature of Intelligence: Bridging Animal and Artificial Intelligence” Theo Murphy meeting (21–22 September 2026, Bristol, UK). Thanks to the organisers for an exciting programme and @royalsociety.org for support.
Song‑contest weekend is always special in our household, this year even more so with the event in Austria and @janboehm.bsky.social commenting on @fm4.orf.at
We also discovered a citizen science app 12points.science fun for rating songs and comparing scorecards. #ESC @eurovision.tv
Contribute to research on cross-cultural variation in taste, voting, decision-making!
it's #Eurovision #ESC final night and my queer half-Austrian dual-scientist household is excited to replace homemade scorecards with this #CitizenScience 🧪 rating app 12points.science

New paper! We use simulations to test received wisdom on the observational sampling method to use and find that Altmann 1974 was right all along (never bet against Jeanne!). Focal follows capture rare, fleeting behaviours, scans captures long, common behaviours. www.sciencedirect.com/science/arti...
