Ethological computational psychiatry: Challenges and opportunities

Studying the intricacies of individual subjects' moods and cognitive processing over extended periods of time presents a formidable challenge in medicine. While much of systems neuroscience appropriately focuses on the link between neural circuit functions ...

Robots mediating interactions between animals for interspecies collective behaviors

Francesco Mondada, Robert Matthew Mills, Frank Bonnet, Martina Szopek

Self-organized collective behavior has been analyzed in diverse types of gregarious animals. Such collective intelligence emerges from the synergy between individuals, which behave at their own time and spatial scales and without global rules. Recently, ro ...

An ecotoxicological view on neurotoxicity assessment

Wolfgang Schulz

The numbers of potential neurotoxicants in the environment are raising and pose a great risk for humans and the environment. Currently neurotoxicity assessment is mostly performed to predict and prevent harm to human populations. Despite all the efforts in ...

Simple rules for an efficient use of Geographic Information Systems in molecular ecology

Stéphane Joost, Estelle Rochat, Kevin Leempoel, Ivo Widmer

Geographic Information Systems (GIS) are becoming increasingly popular in the context of molecular ecology and conservation biology thanks to their display options efficiency, flexibility and management of geodata. Indeed, spatial data for wildlife and liv ...

Sequential pattern formation governed by signaling gradients

Andrew Charles Oates

Rhythmic and sequential segmentation of the embryonic body plan is a vital developmental patterning process in all vertebrate species. However, a theoretical framework capturing the emergence of dynamic patterns of gene expression from the interplay of cel ...

Advances in farm animal genomic resources

Stéphane Joost

The history of livestock started with the domestication of their wild ancestors: a restricted number of species allowed to be tamed and entered a symbiotic relationship with humans. In exchange for food, shelter and protection, they provided us with meat, ...

Advances in farm animal genomic resources

Stéphane Joost

Livestock conservation is changing rapidly in light of policy developments, climate change and diversifying market demands. The last decade has seen a step change in technology and analytical approaches available to define and manage Farm Animal Genetic Re ...

Miniature curved artificial compound eyes

Dario Floreano, Ramon Pericet Camara, Michal Karol Dobrzynski, Géraud L'Eplattenier

In most animal species, vision is mediated by compound eyes, which offer lower resolution than vertebrate single-lens eyes, but significantly larger fields of view with negligible distortion and spherical aberration, and high temporal resolution in a tiny ...

Comparing COI and SSU rDNA barcodes for assessing the diversity and phylogenetic relationships of cyphoderiid testate amoebae (Rhizaria: Euglyphida)

Edward Mitchell, Enrique Lara, Thierry Jean Heger

The mitochondrial Cytochrome Oxidase Subunit 1 gene (COI) has been promoted as an ideal “DNA barcode” for animal species and other groups of eukaryotes. However, the utility of the COI marker for species level discrimination and for phylogenetic analyses h ...

The evolution of communication in robot societies

Sara Mitri

Communication is fundamental to life on earth. All social organisms, from bacteria to humans, use communicative signals to coordinate their behaviors with members of their own and other species. Despite its key role in social organization, many questions r ...
