🏃‍♀️ @bucherlab.bsky.social, @posnienlab.bsky.social and our new #GoenomiX PhD student Kevin represented our Research Training Group at the Göttinger Altstadtlauf. ☀️ Perfect weather for running 5k and fun experience to be supported by so many people in the city center.

Hard work can't have a great view? 🏔️🔬 Of course, it can! Our retreat in Braunlage is in full swing! We're spending our time exchanging our research, new ideas, but also networking, and bonding over volleyball in the evenings. 🏐✨ #PhDLife #IMPRSGS #ScienceRetreat #TeamBuilding #Harz

A small contribution to an important topic, in Nature Reviews Biodiversity. I highlight @howbrainsevolve.bsky.social and Harvey's work in 2000 and illustrate it's pivotal role in our understanding into the principles of brain evolution. Have a read - it's short! www.nature.com/articles/s44...

Our central complex paper with Yi Peng Toh, Theodora Loupasaki, Basil el Jundi, @eahodge.bsky.social & @ebablab.bsky.social has now emerged, like a butterfly, in it's final form. Some heavy grant-writing induced heterochrony has delayed eclosion, but...finally done. elifesciences.org/articles/107...

Distinct evolutionary trajectories of two integration centres, the central complex and mushroom bodies, across Heliconiini butterflies
A cognitive adaptation in Heliconius butterflies, accompanied by strikingly divergent changes in two principal insect integration centres, reveals that neural circuits can differ strongly in their pro...
