When life gives you a fish, you sail with it. 🐟⛵🤖
Our autonomous sailboat and robotic fish finally met on Lake Constance — and the footage did not disappoint. 🌊
Big thanks to @swarmdynamics.bsky.social , Hun Jang and Liang Li for making this happen.

My first co-author paper is out in Current Biology!
In this study, led by Daniela Perez and Serena Ding, we show that nematode self-assembling towers occur in nature and can serve as a collective dispersal mechanism 🪱
Check out a video where Daniela explains the findings and the paper here 👇

Move over, starling murmurations. There’s a slimier, squirmier collective behavior in town. It's a living, twisting tower of worms.
Everybody, meet the wormuration 🪱🪱

Virtual reality rewrites the rules of the swarm. www.science.org/doi/10.1126/...
We find that classical models of collective behavior fail to account for collective motion.

The behavioral mechanisms governing collective motion in swarming locusts
Collective motion, which is ubiquitous in nature, has traditionally been explained by “self-propelled particle” models from theoretical physics. Here we show, through field, lab, and virtual reality e...

Apparently all the PhD researchers holding prestigious NSF-funded research fellowships are having their salaries withheld until some unspecified time when the leadership figures out how to eliminate any grant funding that doesn’t align with the president’s political ideology.
It’s official: all funding requests made on Tuesday by postdocs for their salaries have been unilaterally rejected by NSF.

Bats surf storm fronts during spring migration
Long-distance migration, common in passerine birds, is rare and poorly studied in bats. Piloting a 1.2-gram IoT (Internet of Things) tag with onboard processing, we tracked the daily location, tempera...

The dynamics between predator and prey are laid bare in a striking image of fish being attacked by sharks in the shallow waters of the Maldives, which has claimed the top prize in this year’s Royal Society Publishing Photography Competition.
