How do fish localize sound without interaural cues? @johve.bsky.social et al. found a behavioral algorithm for directional hearing that predicts behavior from a pressure/motion phase comparison and accounts for how this relationship varies with distance. www.cell.com/current-biol...

An algorithm underlying directional hearing in fish

Veith et al. show how a fish—Danionella cerebrum—can reliably startle away from sound. It uses the relative phase between particle motion and pressure to infer the direction of sound. This sensorimoto...

New paper out: www.nature.com/articles/s41... 🥳 Congratulations to our PhD student Katja for her inspiring work just published in Nature Communications on how the larval zebrafish brain processes multiple visual features. Check out a short summary of the work here: tinyurl.com/yzv4ct9k

How do brains make decisions when faced with multiple, potentially conflicting cues? In our latest preprint, we show how #zebrafish use an additive strategy and process multiple visual features through anatomically distinct parallel pathways tinyurl.com/mvkn8em9 Thread 👇

New review in PRX Life, where we propose a tangibility scale for the physics of social interactions, and highlight a few tangible examples - from dead fish “swimming” to efficient schooling, warm penguin huddles, and dry ant rafts. Written with the brilliant Chantal Nguyen 🐟🐧🐜 tinyurl.com/naet5tdh

Three‑row table linking scales: fish, penguin, ant. Each row shows an individual silhouette, a pair‑level interaction image, and the emergent collective - schooling fish, penguin huddle, and an ant raft.

I’m thrilled to be elected as a Fellow of the Royal Society. What an honour! Would not have happened without the mentors, postdocs and students who I’ve had the great privilege to learn and collaborate with throughout my career. @uni-konstanz.de @maxplanck.de

The Royal Society@royalsociety.org · last yr.

We are pleased to announce the 90 outstanding researchers from across the world who have been elected to the Fellowship of the Royal Society this year. The group includes trailblazers from AI and electron microscopy to global health and neuroscience. #RSFellows royalsociety.org/news/2025/05...

We are proud to present our new preprint “Correlative light and electron microscopy reveals the fine circuit structure underlying evidence accumulation in larval zebrafish”, just posted on bioRxiv (www.biorxiv.org/content/10.1...). (1/10)

Correlative light and electron microscopy reveals the fine circuit structure underlying evidence accumulation in larval zebrafish

Accumulating information is a critical component of most circuit computations in the brain across species, yet its precise implementation at the synaptic level remains poorly understood. Dissecting su...

Virtual reality rewrites the rules of the swarm. www.science.org/doi/10.1126/... We find that classical models of collective behavior fail to account for collective motion. www.science.org/doi/10.1126/...

The behavioral mechanisms governing collective motion in swarming locusts

Collective motion, which is ubiquitous in nature, has traditionally been explained by “self-propelled particle” models from theoretical physics. Here we show, through field, lab, and virtual reality e...

Thanks to all of the NIHers and their friends who reached out to me. I am still here (DM me or Signal jeremymberg.78) I still have a very incomplete picture but based on what I have been told, the damage to NIH and to many wonderful people who work(ed) there is/was impossible for me to imagine 1/n

I'm excited to share another project we've been working on: The Transmitter's first book, which includes some of our favorite essays from our first ~9 months. Download a copy here: www.thetransmitter.org/transmitter-...

The Transmitter books

The Transmitter’s first book, “Thinking about neuroscience: Essays from the field,” features a rich collection of writing from researchers Nicole Rust, Anthony Zador and many more.

The Transmitter @thetransmitter.bsky.social · 2y ago

These essays offer the neuroscience community a place to explore the culture and practice of the field; to debate major questions; to examine the craft of neuroscience; and to trace its evolution over time. Download the book now: www.thetransmitter.org/transmitter-...

The introduction to this article reminds me of the intro to "States of Matter" by Goodstein. Why do so many statistical physicists sound like Dostojewski? Cool topic though, which never dies (therefore resisting the second law).

Quanta Magazine@quantamagazine.org · 2y ago

The second law of thermodynamics states that a quantity called entropy is on the rise, indicating that the universe is predisposed to disorder. But the idea of entropy is evolving. www.quantamagazine.org/what-is-entr...
