I had a lot of fun working with a wonderful interdisciplinary team on this paper. If you want to learn about using hypergraphs to study animal social behaviour and communication then take a look!.
🐦 Our work on higher-order network approaches to study animal (vocal) communication is now out in Philosophical Transactions of the Royal Society B🐦⬛.Thanks again to the amazing team! @mattjsilk @TheOVEN_Foote Nina Fefferman @ederry1 .
