Next, Martin Giurfa (@MartinGiurfa) discusses how communication channels in social insects, once thought to produce purely innate responses, are subject to cognitive modulation.

Social insects rely on multiple communication channels. These channels have traditionally been considered innate, eliciting stereotyped responses. However, recent research has shown that cognitive...

Neuropeptides are crucial molecules in the nervous system, regulating various biological processes. Neuropeptide F (NPF) and its shorter form, short neuropeptide F (sNPF), serve functions in invert...

Extremely honored for the opportunity to give the opening Angelique Arvanitaki Lecture at the meeting of the French Society of Neuroscience in Montpellier. Glad that this lecture was named after this brilliant woman who did fundamental work on the nervous system of invertebrates.

See our last work on the effect of learning on how bees respond to the unconditioned stimulus (US) after learning! We show that learning changes not only conditioned-stimulus processing but also US processing. A wonderful work by Yuan Lai et al. https://t.co/QyqKUWqP54

Check out our latest work on transitive inferences (A > B, B > C, therefore A > C) in bees, just published in @FrontPsychol! Here, we reveal a cognitive limit as bees are unable to achieve transitive inference. Instead, their choices are guided by the rewards received. Link below
