🧠Ever wonder how the brain turns a taste into the decision to eat – or not? For the 1st time @ribeirocarlitos.bsky.social team at @champalimaudf.bsky.social and their collaborators have mapped the complete neural circuitry behind an animal’s feeding decisions. 👉 www.fchampalimaud.org/news/bluepri...

How ancient are the building blocks of animal sensory systems? Key components of animal sensory systems evolved before animals. We find that choanoflagellates possess diverse & spatially segregated TRP channels, pointing to ancient origins of sensory specialization. doi.org/10.64898/202...

Tauben sind viel schlauer als gedacht
Ihr Gehirn ist anders aufgebaut als das von Säugern. Trotzdem gibt es Parallelen: Auch Tauben träumen - wahrscheinlich vom Fliegen. Neues aus der Wissenschaft.

Richa, Häring @mathherring.bsky.social‬ et al uncover that the very proteins transducing sound into neuronal activity in the ear, in embryogenesis coordinate epithelial cell movements. Early in #evolution, mechanotransduction perhaps "listened" to intra-organism forces doi 10.1016/j.cub.2025.03.066
