Collaborative effort with @talking-bat.bsky.social and Dennis Röhrig 😊
New paper out!
We found that in pipistrelle bats, social vocalizations carry a stronger phylogenetic signal than echolocation calls, suggesting the former evolve more slowly, while the latter remains flexible and shaped by the environment.

Our paper “Towards a neuroethological approach to consciousness” is out in Phil. Trans. R. Soc. B.
Together with @talking-bat.bsky.social and Lucia Melloni, we suggest bringing Tinbergen’s framework into consciousness research.
Sending huge congratulations to Julio Hechavarría @talking-bat.bsky.social on delivering his very first inaugural lecture today at @freieuniversitaet.bsky.social! What an exciting start of a new a chapter filled with great ideas, strong science, and bat-driven brainloop insights! 👨🏻🏫🦇🧠

Last week, I moved from Frankfurt to Berlin and started my new postdoc position at Freie Uni with @talking-bat.bsky.social and @ycabral.bsky.social 🥳
I am super excited to set up our new lab for more work on bats and their brain+behavior! 🦇🧠🧠
Our new paper is now in BioRxiv ☺️
See how the auditory cortex encodes vocalizations before the bat produces them 📣🦇🧠

with @talking-bat.bsky.social and Dennis Röhrig!
My newly funded project is now featured on the FU department website!
We explore multisensory processing and decision making in bats through a combination of behavioral experiments in the field and neural recordings in the lab 🌿🦇🧠
So excited to get started!

Our new paper is now out in @commsbio.nature.com.
We recorded in the auditory cortex of actively vocalizing bats and find that neurons encode class and temporal structure of vocalizations before they are produced. 🎤🦇🧠

Do you want to know if birds can use hair-like feathers as high-frequency sound receptors during echolocation? Join our team as PhD student or postdoc and find out!
