Big-data approaches lead to an increased understanding of the ecology of animal movement. This exciting review led by @ran_nathan along with a great team of scientists including our very own @MarkAWhiteside (@PlymUni) is in @ScienceMagazine this week. https://t.co/5zLKY2wajf

A review suggests that modern “big-data” techniques are vastly increasing our understanding of animal movement and its ecology.

A little bit late, but… 3 years of hard work paid off. Such a lovely graduation ceremony, and even more humbled to be presented with an award from @UFAW_1926! Reflecting on the last 3 years @PlymUni with @PlymAnimBehav - I’m so thankful I chose this university…

We (@PlymAnimBehav) had a great day identifying gulls and their behaviour using the @GullsEyeProject app. I'm looking forward to seeing the results. @K_Herborn @plymouthbiol

Plymouth of course, best place for ocean, moors and a maritime city where so many explorers passed through and discoveries were made! But happy to share, perhaps as a paired hublet?

Our new paper on Drosophila egg distributions is now available online 🪰🍳 https://t.co/E53pnTX61w This paper is dedicated to Mike Thom, as he was very excited this study, so it is nice to be able to share these results with you all 🧵 1/4

When choosing how many eggs to produce, female fruit flies must consider the physical environment and the likely level of competition their offspring will
