🚨Small Updates About Our Group:🚨
1) Our group leader, @DrAlexPakhomov, is now an MSCA Postdoctoral Fellow at the School of Life Sciences, Keele University (UK).
🦋 New preprint out! 🧭
Do migratory moths in Europe use information from Earth’s magnetic field to determine their position — in other words, do they have a magnetic map?
Find out more in our new preprint!

🦋 A new preprint out! 🧭
We investigated orientation mechanisms in the red admiral (Vanessa atalanta), a common migratory butterfly in Europe.

It was a pleasure to take part in such a fantastic conference, present results of the second part of our #RedAdmiralProject 🦋🧭, and celebrate the 100-year anniversary of @Co_Biologists. The conference was wonderfully organised, with fascinating and inspiring talks throughout!
4) Our virtual home, https://t.co/MJ3KUgSEB6, has received a slight redesign. Check it out for updates on our projects, team, and publications!

Our newest paper is out. 🚨
We show that Cataglyphis #ants use the polarity of the #magnetic field for path integration during learning walks. This suggests a different mechanism for sensing magnetic fields compared with most other insects studied so far. https://t.co/S3z56DOrjs

🚨PhD ALERT! 🚨 We are looking for a highly motivated student to use 🧬 genomic approaches 🧬 to unravel the mysteries of migration using yellow-browed warblers. Think this is you or someone you know? Then come to our Q&A session at on 02/12 and check out the ad below!
