🐷 We are looking for participants in our citizen science project looking at natural behavior of domestic pigs in a free-ranging habitat! Do help and spread the word to interested students, colleagues & friends 🐷👇 lab.citizenscience.ch/en/project/754 @fiblorg @CitSciZurich_en @UZH_Science

Want to find out what potential mechanism lies behind domestic cats' purring? Check out our new study in @CurrentBiology led by colleague Christian T. Herbst! 👉 cell.com/current-biolog…

Today we’re releasing “The A.I. Dilemma” – a new talk @aza and I gave on 3/9, a week before GPT4 launched. *Pls share it widely.* It's critical for institutions to understand how the race between AI labs is accelerating the likelihood of catastrophe: youtube.com/watch?v=xoVJKj…

@ChimpsAhoi @ScienceTimesCom @AMCELL of high interest indeed! Thanks :)

@ScienceTimesCom @AMCELL @_MaximeGarcia might be of interest!

REGISTRATION IS OPEN! Are you getting hyped the 3rd African Bioacoustics Community Conference in October? Then you will be thrilled to hear that REGISTRATION IS OPEN from today!! Head over to our website's registration page now and book your spot! africanbioacoustic.wixsite.com/abcommunity/re…

Want to work with @TaiChimpProject ? We still look for a camp manager starting July 1, 2022 for 2 years! Speak French and English ? Like managing 30+ people in a primary rain forest ? Potentially creating a PhD project ? Apply NOW bit.ly/3BJG0cu #Emploi via @EmploiCnrs

🌟NEW paper🌟 out &, best of all, it's the first for @AitanaArasco - always a special #celebration. Epic cross-species test of vocal propagation. Great to work also with @_MaximeGarcia @CantMichael @ChimpsAhoi @ManserMarta & Solomon Kyabulima. #OpenAccess doi.org/10.1016/j.anbe…

🚨Paper klaxon🚨 Great to see this collab with first-author @AitanaArasco and led by @_MaximeGarcia published! In it, we test the acoustic adaptation hypothesis ('a species calls = adapted to optimally transmit in own habitat') in 3 species of mongoose 🧵 sciencedirect.com/science/articl…

Now out in Animal Behaviour @AnimBehSociety, with @ChimpsAhoi @ManserMarta @Dwarf_Mongoose @MongooseProject @CantMichael @BristolBioSci @ISLE_uzh @UZH_en

Thrilled with a new paper out, the first as lead author for @AitanaArasco (congrats and well done on a great work!) and the first as last author for me :) 3 field sites, >300K recordings, looking at sound propagation in several mongoose species! tinyurl.com/a8xyd4bt

YOU might be our new Team member 😉🚨 Job alert 🚨 Fully funded 4-years PhD Position in the Animal Behaviour Group at the University of Zurich, Switzerland. We very much looking forward to hear from you! #PhdPositions #KalahariMeerkatProject @snsf_ch @UZH_en RTs are Welcome 🙏🏻

Just gave my first plenary talk at the #CoBeNe22 PhD academy conference @univienna ! Thanks much to the organizers for the invite and looking forward to lots of interesting talks!

@AMCELL Let alone the absurd logic of spending large amounts of money (+ environmental impact of manufacturing etc...) on high-tech equipment instead of allocating that same money for actual grazing pastures ... this is just sad

Des volailles projetées par des "canons à poulet" pour être envoyées à l’abattoir ! Une fois de plus, @L214 dévoile l'horreur de l'#ElevageIntensif, un modèle cruel contre lequel la Fondation #30millionsdamis lance un cri d'alarme. 30millionsdamis.fr/actualites/art…

New study out today in Phil Trans B with @AndreaRavignani Still looking into vocal learning and acoustic allometry, this time with quite unexpected results and a framework to identify potential vocal learners @MPI_NL @UZH_Science @NCCR_Language @ISLE_uzh doi.org/10.1098/rstb.2…

Je ne sais pas qui est à l’origine de cette pétition pour la protection du #lynx — j’encourage tout un chacun à signer — mais elle fait référence aux résultats de nos recherches qui ont démontré l’impact du braconnage et l’implication d’agents de l’Etat. actions.sumofus.org/a/braconnage-l…

📢New paper! "The evolution of mammalian brain size" @ScienceAdvances Led by Jeroen Smaers @stonybrooku and Kamran Safi @safilabmpi @MPI_animalbehav - Congrats and Thanks to all co-authors! 🍾🎉 🧵1/5 Awesome Illustration: @lazaroillustrat advances.sciencemag.org/content/7/18/e…

The time to end the cage age in Europe is now! @LinsNorbert and @DolorsMM during the #EndTheCageAgeHearing will you represent the will of the 1.4 million people and call for a cage-free EU? #EndTheCageAge
