Super excited to share our new paper in Current Biology — on one of the most flamboyant bird groups on Earth: manakins 🐦 Males are famous for dazzling courtship dances: high-speed backflips, wings snapping like firecrackers. How did this evolve? 🧵 📹 watch (w/ audio!): s.gwdg.de/t5Lhmd — 1

In a new study published in @currentbiology.bsky.social, researchers uncover how a dietary shift may have set the stage for one of nature’s most spectacular phenomena: the elaborate courtship displays of manakins. 🔗 Press release: www.bi.mpg.de/news/2026-06...
Fantastic collaboration with great colleagues at Senckenberg @sgn.one @mpiforbi.bsky.social @harvard.edu @bihatcharite.bsky.social and other institutes
How do birds thrive on diets so rich in sugar that they would cause metabolic chaos in humans? A new study reveals that evolution found both shared and unique genetic solutions. 🔗 Press release: www.bi.mpg.de/news/2026-02... 📸 Picture of a rainbow lorikeet by Gerald Allen @science.org @maxplanck.de
We made it to the front page of @science.org today!! 🎉 Some birds process sugar loads that would be devastating to human metabolism. Many bird groups independently evolved this ability — did they all get there the same way? /1
