In vivo electrophysiology in head-fixed and freely moving mole-rats

In vivo electrophysiology in head-fixed and freely moving mole-rats

Shirdhankar et al. establish a method to record from single neurons in the brain of African mole-rats while they are head-fixed or freely moving, performing natural behaviors. The method allows the study of sensory perception and neural adaptations of these strictly subterranean rodents, well known for their longevity, cancer resistance, and magnetic sense.

Hello visual ecologists! Are you studying how human activities (urbanization, deforestation, climate change, pollution, etc) affect animal coloration? I want to talk to you! 🧪 I've found some interesting reviews & older papers, but I want to find out more about research currently in progress!

Bat1K Genome Project@bat1kgenomes.bsky.social · 3w ago

Where did bats come from?🦇🌍 After decades of debate, the biggest bat genome + fossil study ever done has an answer - and it’s not where anyone expected! 🤩OUR PHASE 1 FLAGSHIP is out today in nature! doi.org/10.1038/s415... A thread 🧵

Reference genomes and fossils revise bat family phylogeny and biogeography - Nature

An updated phylogeny of bats is presented, based on new genome assemblies and many ancient fossils and including all known bat families.

hello wonderful network, especially all of you in the #Doñana region - we are looking for someone who could check the island specified in Sandra's thread for a GPS logger and gull-billed tern chick that has died on an island in this area. please share in your networks to multiply our chances

Common Tern Project@commonternproject.bsky.social · last mo.

Dear Bluesky-friends, I am back to ask another favour. Gull-billed tern chick H36 has died close to Parque Nacional de Doñana. It seems to be on a small island in the Caño de Guadiamar: maps.app.goo.gl/Z195ha4z9zYY...
