Off to university: That is the motto for year 8 pupils from #Konstanz this week. The pupils gain insights into research topics @UniKonstanz and are invited to conduct experiments. @CBehav neurobiologists @anna_stoeckl and @JJFosterLab gave a workshop on “Strange Sensory Worlds”.

🚨#PhDposition You love🦋👁️#insects #vision #flight and are curious about how moths adjust their vision and movement dynamically to night-time lights (incl. #ALAN): apply to become part of our team @UniKonstanz (insect-vision.com):

Best of both worlds: science and carnival in our neurobiology seminar today 🥳🎊🪅 the time of the year when we broaden our scope to organisms other than insects 🐸🦑☀️🐓🦩🎩🌈

Paper🚨t.ly/Q1EV- we show how hummingbird hawkmoths visually control their proboscis when probing flower patterns. Basically: not so different from how we get our fingers to an app on our phone! But using a "tongue".

Are you at the #dzg23 and have you ever thought about how flying insects might adapt their flight strategies to optimise visual acquisition in dim light?
Come and check out poster N19 from our @AndreaGonsek!
