Very glad that Albin Salazar @latinchemist is joining our group as a postdoctoral fellow where his goal is to wed multi-level paradigms with multi-scale data integration to elucidate mechanistic behaviors pertinent in diverse foraging scenarios.😄
Can one bring together Reinforcement learning and Drift Diffusion models to unravel cognitive mechanisms underlying collective foraging ? Congrads to Jonathan Marienhagen , Lisa Blum Moyse and Dominik Deffner on this new study. Very happy that @IntBioPhysics postdoc Lisa and…

Check out this new paper from our group by our very own talented postdoc Lisa Blum Moyse and our PI @zamakany We present an analytically tractable model to give us mechanistic insights of how animals socially forage under different forms of social couplings.

One of the main insights of our new paper is that when studying social patch foraging, it is crucial to look beyond patch residence time , looking into metrics characterizing the accuracy of inferring patch quality and group cohesion certainly increase our understanding of…
