“Academic science is not only about productivity, it is also about deep understanding, exploring creative solutions and training critical thinkers to be the next generation of researchers.” www.nature.com/articles/d41...

And another paper out, which has just been covered by The Guardian! www.theguardian.com/environment/... original article: royalsocietypublishing.org/rspb/article... @bethbees.bsky.social @nicrodemo.bsky.social

Our work on trace conditioning x reversal learning in honey bees is now published ! @martingiurfa.bsky.social I especially want to acknowledge Shirel's part in this work, for collecting most of the data during her Bachelor's internship. 🐝✨ Link: royalsocietypublishing.org/rspb/article...

Attention, awareness and flexibility in honeybees: divergent effects of distraction on delay versus trace reversal learning

Abstract. The question of whether awareness is required for trace but not for delay conditioning has recently been explored in the honeybee, a species reno
