Cognitive stimulation has been shown to be rewarding and capable of eliciting positive
emotions in several species. In contrast to the abundant learning and exploration …

How animals in groups coordinate their movements to produce cohesive collective patterns
has been the subject of many models but remains poorly documented empirically in the …

Marker-less video-based pose estimation promises to allow us to do movement science on
existing video databases. We revisited the old question of how people synchronize their …

Many animals, such as migrating shoals of fish, navigate in groups. Knowing the
mechanisms involved in animal navigation is important when it comes to explaining …

Classic computational models of collective motion suggest that simple local averaging rules
can promote many observed group-level patterns. Recent studies, however, suggest that …

Individual-based models of self-propelled particles (SPPs) are a popular and promising
approach to explain features of the collective motion of animal aggregations. Many models …

Naturally occurring collective motion is a fascinating phenomenon in which swarming
individuals aggregate and coordinate their motion. Many theoretical models of swarming …

The ability to adapt behaviour according to context is vital to the success of many organisms,
particularly when it comes to mitigating risk, across time and space, in unpredictable …

In many group-living animals, leadership by only a fraction of the group members can be
important for group navigation. It has been shown that subgroups of informed individuals …

Cortisol coregulation, which is the up-or down-regulation of partners' physiological stress
responses, has been described for individuals with strong attachment bonds, eg parents and …
