So excited that this preprint is finally out. A study of the long term social structure dynamics in a group of rats and how it relates to individual characteristics. @j_d_davidson @Mate_Nagy_ @CBehav @MPI_animalbehav

This morning our steering group and working group leaders met with Prof. Dr. Stratmann, president of @maxplanckpress, to discuss the postdoc phase at the MPG.

New preprint posted! with @SmithBeeLab @icouzin @tlandgraf @nebww @DDormagen biorxiv.org/content/10.110…

Excited to announce that we'll be organizing a virtual workshop on the Physics of Behavior on April 30th from 10am - 1pm EDT (co-organized by @greg_stephens and myself). Focused on the topic “If we can track (most) everything, what can we do with the data?”

What behavioral and neural mechanisms underlie foraging? How do decision strategies change with the environment? How does an animal learn the statistics of the environment? Using a Bayesian approach, @zpkilpat , @j_d_davidson and myself got some answers: arxiv.org/abs/2004.10671
