Mostly fascinated by the complexity of the world. Mostly alarmed at what is happening to it. Invested in in all things ecological and environmental.

Previously we called it 'publish or perish'. Now we call it 'publish, then perish'... The era or desperate science.

Parrots are intelligent enough to understand touch screen interfaces and they prefer watching videos of other parrots.

@priya_tamma Yes you are right! The wasps with long ovipositors are likely non-pollinating female wasps since they use it to lay their eggs by drilling from outside the fruit, through the fruit wall.

We are happy that our new study on effects of ozone on insect olfaction is out now at https://t.co/w9PnrTk5i2
We show that insects might not only suffer from the loss of odors due to the odorants’ degradation by ozone, but also from the accumulation of degradation products.

@mknaden1 Thanks for the tweet! Great to have my first publication in the department and also a thank you to @mknaden1 @billhansson and everyone in the team for the constant support and the great collaboration.

After 1.5 years of hard work, I am thrilled to share with you Φ-SO - a Physical Symbolic Optimization package that uses deep reinforcement learning to discover physical laws from data . Here is Φ-SO discovering the analytical expression of a damped harmonic oscillator👇

@skinkomaniac @aparag49 Fantastic! And thanks for the share and what a beautiful spider!

Excited to have completed an amazing course after dedicating 6 months of weekends and after-work hours. Wasn't easy, but totally worth it! Now that it's over, I'll miss this constant source of inspiration. Time to find next learning adventure! #education #learning #deeplearning

Her discussions were the best and got me through some intellecutal mental blocks. So glad to see her with the group! Thanks for the share! :-) #InspiringMentors #Dedication #AcademicJourney

@lalitpatnaik Es ist gut dass du lernst Deutsch. Viel Spass!

Easy to predict and not surprising making it truly scary! Insect Armageddon leading to bird Armageddon as they lose their main food source. #ecology #wildlife #conservation https://t.co/NzvTGJQG33

Just realized that being vegan is like trying to solve a Rubik's cube while blindfolded and riding a unicycle. Kudos to all my vegan friends for mastering this complex puzzle of a lifestyle. As for me, I'm still stumbling through the plant-based side of things." #veganstruggles

[Vignesh V @figinavig]

@dlizcano @SuzetteFlantua Raising animals for food requires more land than growing plant-based food. Humans only need a fraction of that space to feed themselves from plants. The magnitude of this difference is mind-boggling. #plantbased #foodforthought

Discover how insect olfactory system detects odors using 2 strategies: combinatorial coding & specialized pathways. Study by Lydia Gruber compares 2 glomeruli, revealing generic features of narrowly tuned circuits. #olfactorysystem #insects https://t.co/mqPTq9baue

Just reminding myself that climate change is not a distant threat - it's happening right now. The time for action is urgent and we must all do our part to reduce our carbon footprint . #ClimateCrisis #ActNow #Sustainability
