No GPS.📍
No map.🗺
Just tiny brains of Cataglyphis hellenica doing elite navigation. 🐜🧭

🤩 Very proud to announce that today @chiaratenne.bsky.social first #ant paper has been published in #JCP-A @springernature.com 🥳🧪👩🔬
We show that also C. hellenica has a magnetic sense suggesting that magnetoreception is rather common than unique in #Cataglyphis ants 🧭🐜🇬🇷

⁉️ ¿Sabías que...? Algunas hormigas están perfectamente adaptadas al calor extremo.
🐜 Las #hormigas del género #Cataglyphis, conocidas como “hormigas del desierto”, alcanzan su pico de actividad durante las horas centrales del día
Congrats to our #sfb1372 research group fellow Pauline Fleischmann @cataglyphilosophy.bsky.social and her team for their findings on the magnetic compass of #cataglyphis deserts ants! #magnetoreception #neuroethology #womeninstem

🚨It is finally out: In our newest paper paper in @currentbiology.bsky.social we show that #Cataglyphis #DesertAnts have a polarity-sensitive magnetic sense 🐜🧭 Please read & share 🧪↘️www.cell.com/current-biology/fulltext... #Magnetoreception #Neuroethology #InsectNavigation
Selfie of Feline (student) and Pauline (supervisor) with the printed bachelor thesis
✅️ And the second bachelor thesis has been finished in our team 🤩👍 Congratulations, Feline! 🥳
Feline had a closer look at the role of the GMF for spatial orientation in darkness 🧭🐜 #Magnetoreception #Cataglyphis #DesertAnts #Neuroethology #WomenInSTEM👩🔬👩🔬🧪
And the clip was finally on TV today 📺🥳 Check it out ↘️https://dir.lat/ieHOL0 It is in German, but the #ant scenes are fantastic also without explanation 🤩🐜🧭#Cataglyphis #Magnetoreception...
Today @SFB_1372 published a portrait of me by Charlotte Hintzmann on instagram:

😊Last week, the ndr visited us to report about our #ant #research. The movie will be included in today‘s #NDR show „DAS!“ at 18:45. Do not miss it! Thanks to S. and S. Sievert and to my lab for an exciting day!🎥🐜🧭👩🔬 #Cataglyphis #magnetorecption #neuroethology

With the end of the field season, not only we returned to @UniOldenburg, but we also got new #team members. I proudly present Queen Athena and Queen Bari with their respective colony members 🐜👑🐜👑🐜
Welcome to Oldenburg, ladies! 🤗 #Cataglyphis #Navigation #Magnetoreception
Mission accomplished: Talking about our research on #Magnetoreception and #Navigation in the visual foragers #Cataglyphis ants at the #ICIV2023 🧭🐜
The #compatibility of #fieldwork and family is undoubtedly a challenge, but I am very happy, thankful and proud to show my kids my #ant research🐜🧭☀️🇬🇷 #youngscientists #Cataglyphis #Neuroethology #WomeninSTEM #sciencemom
What I love about my research is the combination of behavioural experiments in the natural habitat and neurobiological analyses. ❤️🐜🧠
Looking forward to the results of this year's field season - more knowledge about #Neuroethology of #Cataglyphis #Navigation & #Magnetoreception
First marked #Cataglyphis ant of the field season 2023🤩🐜 315 today, many more to come. Looking forward to new insights about the #neuroethology of #insectnavigation together with a great team from @UniOldenburg in collaboration with @Uni_WUE ☀️🧭🇬🇷
Today, I will give a talk about the magnetic #compass in #Cataglyphis ants🐜 invited by @K_Corthals and @BartGeurten. Do not miss the symposium 20 "Hidden Senses" at #NWG2023 @NeuroforumNWG covering #thermoreception🌡, #hygrosensation💧, #magnetoreception🧭 & #electroreception⚡️
Today, on #InternationalWomensDay it is my great pleasure and I am very proud to introduce my first PhD student @ChiaraTennerie1 who started one week ago 🤩 Welcome in Oldenburg, Chiara 🤗 @UniOldenburg @SFB_1372 #IWD2023 #WomenInSTEM #Cataglyphis #Navigation 👩🔬🐜☀️🧭
Heute Abend stelle ich im #SciencePub 👩🔬🍻 auf Einladung der @NWDUG_WHV in Wilhelmshaven im #Klingklang meine Forschung vor 😊 @UniOldenburg @SFB_1372 https://www.nwdug.de/aktuelles/science-pub/ Freut euch auf #Cataglyphis Ameisen und ihre #Navigation|skünste 🧭☀️🐜
Check out the most recent @BBCEarth #podcast episode "Pulling Power" ➡️ https://dir.lat/lQswlJ @Dr_Shack_ interviewed me about the #MagneticSense of #Cataglyphis desert #ants' and how they start their foraging careers outside the nest 🐜🧭 That was fun!😊 Listen and enjoy🤗
PhD student wanted!🐜🧭🌞 I am happy to officially announce that I started at the @UniOldenburg as a @SFB_1372 fellow😊In addition, I am very proud to announce my first PhD position: https://dir.lat/dYUJnP Apply or retweet!🤗#Cataglyphis #neuroethology #magnetoreception...
Here we come 🤩 On the way to Lisbon 🌞Looking forward to #icn2022lisbon and discussing science in person! @neuroethology @icn2020lisbon #Cataglyphis #navigation
This year mainly as a visiting advisor, but still very happy to participate on site in the FIELD SEASON 2022 😊 🇬🇷🐜☀️🧭 #ants #fieldwork #neuroethology #Cataglyphis @Uni_WUE @dfg_public @germanscholars
🥳Finally out: #Specialissue on #Magnetosensation 🧲 in JCP-A! Many exciting articles shedding light on compass systems🧭, magnetic maps 🗺️and underlying mechanisms in numerous species. Proud that our #Cataglyphis article is included😊🐜...
Our second paper about #magnetosensation in #Cataglyphis is out in JCP-A ☺️🐜🧭 @Grob_in @Uni_WUE @dfg_public To make the long story short: The importance of the #GMF for navigation changes with increasing foraging experience.
