Our work on navigation mechanisms in homing pigeons is out now! Do check out 🐦
To be a pigeon, one must think like a pigeon! 🕊️ 🧐 Check out our recent work from the www.thekaolab.com, led by the flocking amazing @knaticat.bsky.social in @elife.bsky.social: A tale of two birds: cognitive simplicity drives collective route improvements in homing pigeons doi.org/10.7554/eLif...

Had a great time meeting and learning from researchers in the fields of cultural evolution, collective intelligence and psychology in the COSMOS summer school held in the beautiful city of Tokyo. Thanks a lot to the amazing duo @watarutoyokawa.bsky.social & @thecharleywu.bsky.social for organizing!

Excited to share our recent study that explores the navigation mechanism(s) pigeons 🐦 use to improve homing efficiency and if these fit the criteria of cummulative cultural evolution. www.biorxiv.org/content/10.1...
