Our new study on social modulation of defense responses across threat levels is out @FrontEcolEvol! doi.org/10.3389/fevo.2022.88… @Neuro_CF
And our new study is now out! We show that under a higher threat flies weigh more social information than that they directly perceive. doi.org/10.3389/fevo.2022.88…

A new paper with our collaborators @AlexaMMedeiros @CMendesLab @AHobbiss shows that leg mechanosensory stimuli can cause fast and sustained directional avoidance in Drosophila, even without the involvement of the central brain 🪰🧠 👇 authors.elsevier.com/c/1jEhh…

Thank you for supporting this crazy dream that became a reality #scienceonthewalls @BaselDec #ciêncianasparedes
What happens when scientists and animal technicians collaborate with artists with the help of kids in a community close to Lisbon? Great street art! @CharlotteRosher is showing this right now, and it is amazing! #ARTconf2023
