New paper! We use simulations to test received wisdom on the observational sampling method to use and find that Altmann 1974 was right all along (never bet against Jeanne!). Focal follows capture rare, fleeting behaviours, scans captures long, common behaviours. www.sciencedirect.com/science/arti...

Most behavioural studies rely on systematic behavioural sampling, as observing and recording all behavioural events that occur is rarely feasible. Cho…

The Transmitter @thetransmitter.bsky.social · 8mo agoKenneth Catania spoke with @thetransmitter.bsky.social about how the specialized snout of the star-nosed mole allows for high-speed foraging and underscores the importance of studying behavior alongside anatomy. By Lauren Schneider #neuroskyence www.thetransmitter.org/neuros-ark/n...
Ken Catania's class at Vanderbilt that covered the neurobiology of fascinating animals like the star-nosed mole is one of the reasons I pursued a career in neuroscience! So fun to read this Q&A:

MPI for Biological Intelligence@mpiforbi.bsky.social · 9mo agoNightingales are masters of imitation! New research shows: During territorial contests, a male matches a rival’s song in real time by tracking and imitating both, pitch and syllable duration. This shows a remarkable precision in hearing and vocal control. 🔗More: www.bi.mpg.de/news/2026-01-vallentin

Remembering Adam Kampff, a dear friend, inspirational teacher, and a remarkable human being. He dedicated his life to broadening scientific education and demystifying modern technology to young people around the world. www.sainsburywellcome.org/web/research...
Last night Adam Kampff, the glue, the light, the catalyst, the builder, the smile, left us. He and his work transformed the lives of many labs, scientists, students. He inspired and was generous to his last transformation, working tirelessly to set up a foundation to continue the work.Thank you!
Today I woke up to the sounds of the rainforest and read you were on your way to the stars. You inspired me so much. You made me dare. You inspired so many and spread stardust on your way to democratizing knowledge. You will be missed but your inspiration lives on.
