Echo chambers in the honeybee dance communication! We automatically detected 100K waggle phases of dancing bees and found a fascinating aspect of how bees organize their colony space. A thread.

BUMBLEBEES OF THE HIMALAYA - pdf *now* available from ResearchGate - keys and 337 colour-pattern diagrams, designed for precision IDs in the lab, this is not a field guide (a lockdown project so no opportunities for pics of live bees or characters) researchgate.net/publication…

Stop publishing in Nature. Can't believe they tweeted this like it was a steal on an all-inclusive vacation package.
Replying to @NatureNeuro
In this scenario, the cost of publication is covered by an Article Processing Charge (APC) paid at the time of publication. The APC for Nature Neuroscience in 2022 is €9,500/US $11,390/£8,290.

New paper out! Bumble bee color mystery solved! We unravel a suite of genes from upstream Abd-B, to intermediate dev. genes, to a set of interacting downstream melanin and redox genes to drive melanic pigmentation differences in B. melanopygus! Please RT! doi.org/10.1093/gbe/evab080

New paper from my lab is out! We re-examined the modelling approach of previous work on bumble bees & climate change using occupancy models. Using simulated data, we found bias in their occupancy estimates & no evidence for widespread declines. (1/5) sciencedirect.com/science/ar…
