We are looking for a new PhD student to study experience-dependent modulation of olfactory circuits in the fly brain. See details here: jobs.ice.mpg.de/jobposting/d63… Please RT! Thanks! #drosophila #neuroscience #PhDposition

Hey there. We’re hiring! Fully-funded Postdoc/PhD positions are open in my lab Universität Würzburg #UniWürzburg. Get in touch if you’re interested in joining this fantastic crew 👇 Details here: theachelab.org/open-positions #neuroscience #drosophila #AcademicChatter. RT appreciated.

📣I will soon announce two fully funded PhD positions in fish ecophysiology at Göteborgs universitet / University of Gothenburg Naturvetenskap/GU. Start date late this year and I’ll post announcement here. Tell your friends! 📣

🚨New paper out in PNASNews! We Robin Grob Universität Würzburg #UniWürzburg show that experimentally altered magnetic fields affect both #Behavior and #NeuronalPlasticity during intial learning walks in #Cataglyphis #ants🐜🧭↘️pnas.org/doi/10.1073/pn…↙️#navigation #neuroethology #magnetoreception #compass

🐜 Just out in PNASNews! We've studied how desert ants process magnetic information. Our findings reveal how manipulating magnetic fields impacts the brain, affecting compass calibration and spatial memory formation. 🧠🧭 Pauline N. Fleischmann Universität Würzburg #UniWürzburg doi.org/10.1073/pnas.2…

Desert ants find their way back to the nest with the help of the earth's magnetic field. The associated learning process leaves traces in their nervous system. This is shown by a new study PNASNews Robin Grob @Cataglyphilosophine NTNUnorway #Cataglyphis ▶️ uni-wuerzburg.de/en/news-and-ev…

Auch BR24 berichtet über unsere Robin Grob Universität Würzburg #UniWürzburg Studie in PNASNews und den Befund, dass #Wüstenameisen ihren #Kompass mit dem #Erdmagnetfeld kalibrieren 😊 Und ich komme auch zu Wort 🗨🤩 ↘️br.de/nachrichten/wi…↙️🐜🧭🧠

Huge gratitude to the incredible field helpers from Universität Würzburg #UniWürzburg! Their invaluable support made studying ant behavior and brains in their natural habitat not just possible, but also a lot of fun 🐜🧠🧭

Look at this beautiful ant brain 🧠🧭

My dear colleague Jacqueline Degen looks for a PhD student to join her project on the #behavior of moth under natural & artificial light at night🦋💡 #ALAN I highly recommend the supervisor, the Zoology II department Universität Würzburg #UniWürzburg + field work in Berlin 🤩↘️lmy.de/CWxy↙️

It's not just a compass but a reference system! Desert ants use magnetic information to calibrate their visual cues and remember routes. sciencenews.org/article/how-ma…

🚨#PhDposition in our group! #insect #vision #flight You are curious about how moths adjust their vision & movement dynamically to night-time lights (incl. #ALAN): apply to become part of the team - roof jumps included (insect-vision.com) t.ly/QDkZS 📢pl RT

We now celebrate the Young Investigator Awardees "who have shown outstanding promise & have made a significant research contribution in any aspect of #neuroethology." with the YIA symposium #icn2024berlin Congratulations 🥳 Marcel Sayre Sam Fabian Maria Ines Sotelo Robin Grob

And Robin Grob closed the Young investigator symposium with his talk "Guided by a sixth sense - unraveling the neuronal basis for magnetic orientation" #icn2024berlin 🧠🐜🦋🧭
