Groups of animals inhabit vastly different sensory worlds, or umwelten, which shape
fundamental aspects of their behaviour. Yet the sensory ecology of species is rarely …

An ability to estimate quantities, such as the number of conspecifics or the size of a predator,
has been reported in vertebrates. Fish, in particular zebrafish, may be instrumental in …

The complex neuronal circuitry of the brain develops from limited information contained in
the genome. After the genetic code instructs the birth of neurons, the emergence of brain …

The dynamics of living organisms are organized across many spatial scales. However,
current cost-effective imaging systems can measure only a subset of these scales at once …

Collective motion is ubiquitous in nature; groups of animals, such as fish, birds, and
ungulates appear to move as a whole, exhibiting a rich behavioral repertoire that ranges …

Wide-field-of-view microscopy that can resolve three-dimensional (3D) information at high
speed and spatial resolution is particularly desirable for studying the behaviour of freely …

Environmentally appropriate social behavior is critical for survival across the lifespan. To
support this flexible behavior, the brain must rapidly perform numerous computations taking …

Collectively moving groups of animals rely on the decision-making of locally interacting
individuals in order to maintain swarm cohesion. However, the complex and noisy visual …

Social affiliation emerges from individual-level behavioural rules that are driven by
conspecific signals,,,–. Long-distance attraction and short-distance repulsion, for example …

Understanding the mechanisms by which information and misinformation spread through
groups of individual actors is essential to the prediction of phenomena ranging from …
