Two Postdoc jobs at #mpaib with Serena Ding on collective behavior of worms

(Never seen a "wormuration"? That's them in green)

Going back to Italy in spring means getting surprised at how green everything already is compared to Finland

Exciting to finally experience my personal equivalent of ‘is there a doctor on the plane?’ 🕊️

Post-doc opportunity on comparative cognition and movement dynamics in corvids with the brilliant Prof Debbie Kelly at the University of Manitoba

You know it’s a successful birdwatching trip when you see an eagle 💪🏼🦅

Are you a bachelor's / master's student looking for a thesis project or Erasmus Internship? We’re looking for someone to come and help us collecting data! If you’re interested, feel free to contact me! :)

"...anyone who actually understands LLMs knows that it can’t achieve new ways of thinking. It’s just putting together words in the most statistically likely way, forming connections that may sound like a well-thought-out argument but are actually not...'intelligence' as humans would define it."

The most amazing parents a bird can ask for. Another field season is done - another year of watching flycatchers working endlessly to give these angry fluffballs as much care as possible 🤍🖤 thank you @deryktolman.bsky.social for the beautiful pictures!

Studies of domestic pigeons have taught us lots about cognition, navigation, and genetics. If you’d like to learn why their wild cousins are also worthy of scientific attention, I’ve written a Rock Dove @currentbiology.bsky.social ‘quick guide’: doi.org/10.1016/j.cub.2025.01.065

Always nice to talk at the LUOVA doctoral school spring symposium!! This year I presented my first field season and some results on coordination in pied flycatchers 🐦‍⬛
