The final chapter of my thesis has just been published in @Ecol_Evol! https://t.co/1A71SrtbZP Here we find that the social environment, notably vocal and aggressive interactions, are linked to cognitive development in magpie fledglings.

✨ New paper out in @Ecol_Evol ! Sequel to Coralcraft, our 3D model🪸 We found there is no "one-size-fits-all" way to measure #habitatcomplexity on coral reefs. Coral community composition matters! 🐠 Full paper here: https://t.co/Py79yRYRE0

🦉🌾 How do nocturnal birds share space in tropical landscapes? Our study in The Gambia shows nightjars may partition space at fine scales, with strong use of rice fields for foraging. Now published in @Ecol_Evol Habitat use matters—even at night 🌒 📄 https://t.co/2U8BaCCfQj

🚨 Our new paper is out NOW in @Ecol_Evol 👀Here we show that prior exposure to dynamic illumination can have a persisting effect on the visual perception of 🦀, reducing their ability to detect predators even after the dynamic illumination has ended. 🔗 https://t.co/OMSpK3WwVj

📢New paper out in @Ecol_Evol! We still know little about the ecology of juvenile Octopus vulgaris. Our study shows they strategically position bivalve shells for shelter and visual control, demonstrating smart survival strategies in sandy habitats.🐙🐚 https://t.co/UJSpr0eXkO

New paper out now 🥳 where we examine sex-specific effects of social environment on behaviour and their correlations using high-throughput behavioural phenotyping in D. melanogaster
onlinelibrary.wiley.com
Behavioural traits are plastic in response to the social environment. The perceived amount of sex-linked behavioural contexts modifies the expression of activity-related traits in a sex-specific...

Our new study published in @Ecol_Evol provides evidence of how evolutionary history with chronic malnutrition can enhance the vulnerability to pathogenic infections at older ages. Thanks to @TSB_Ashoka @India_Alliance @serbonline for funding the work https://t.co/Yfh0R8KrkW

Regular exposure to nutritional stress may cause organisms to trade off limited resources from immunity and somatic maintenance, increasing their disease susceptibility, which may exacerbate with...

Speech is not the pinnacle stage of vocal learning evolution. New paper out 📄 🔥🦧: https://t.co/vgrXBVk8Ur
onlinelibrary.wiley.com
Current evidence on extant great ape calls provides new details and expanding insights into the extinct vocal forms and functions that allowed human ancestors to jump-start speech evolution.

I'm thrilled to let you know that we've got a new paper out! 🎉🤩🥳 This time, we took a look at how weather and extreme weather events impact the flight patterns of three different raptor species in southwestern Spain. https://t.co/BmQHCWE2pp

Flying organisms, such as birds, alter their flight behavior in response to atmospheric conditions, and climate change has exacerbated extreme weather events like heatwaves, impacting their flight....
