Since we've moved platforms, I thought I'd make a new explainer thread for our (Aamir Sadiq, @vishuguttal.bsky.social, Rohini Balakrishnan, and I) recent paper on tree crickets.

Meet Oecanthus henryi. Like in many cricket species, O. henryi males call to attract mates.

We're looking for a PhD candidate who will characterise what echolocating agents do in groups using a multi-sensor rigs in the field. Wouldn't it be cool to finally figure out how bats manage their calling and flying - and even reconstruct what they may be hearing to make these decisions? 5/n

I am delighted and honored to have been awarded the 2024 Fyssen International Prize!

Sharing it with Jean-Louis Deneubourg makes it all the more special. He was instrumental in inspiring me to study collective behaviour when I was a PhD student.
