Savoir évaluer des quantités est une capacité utile dans de nombreuses situations, pour choisir la meilleure source de nourriture ou évaluer le rapport de force dans un contexte de compétition par exemple (Nieder, 2020). Cette capacité semble d’ailleurs très largement répandue au sein des Vertébrés, des poissons aux primates (Agrillo & Beran, 2013). Au sein […]

Postdoctoral Researcher Position at the iomE Mainz, Germany: Uncovering the Evolution and Molecular Regulation of Insect Cognition How do insects learn to find their way around a maze? When does it make sense for them to forget? What are the molecular bases of learning and forgetting in these social insects? How are those genes regulated […]

Doctoral Researcher Position (PhD): Consequences of genomic changes during the evolution of ant slavery Join our international team as a graduate student to investigate the consequences genomic changes during the evolution of dulotic social parasitism. Follow up on the recent discovery that slavemaking ants have convergently lost odorant receptors and investigate the ability of these […]

Contexte Les îlots de chaleur urbaine sont communs à toutes les villes, mais leurs impacts sur les espèces ectothermes, comme les insectes, varient selon la latitude. En effet, il est raisonnable de supposer que les insectes peuvent bénéficier de ces îlots chaleur urbaine à des latitudes élevées, mais subir des contraintes thermiques à des latitudes […]
