Interesting weekend read: A series of studies published earlier this year suggests that birds & mammals did not inherit the neural pathways that generate intelligence from a common ancestor, but rather evolved them independently. quantamagazine.org/intelligence-e… ✍️ Yasemin Saplakoglu

How nature makes a complex brain, and why humans may not be so special after all. 🔊Listen to the recent NPR podcast by NPR's Short Wave about our recent publications. My first 📻podcast ever😮!! THANKS Rachel Carlson Regina G. Barber, PhD Rebecca Ramirez ! npr.org/2025/04/16/124…

#ECCN2025 was a key meeting point for researchers working with a wide range of animal models, from invertebrates to vertebrates. Plenary talks, flash sessions, posters, and networking events fostered discussion and exchange on the latest findings in comparative neuroscience🧠📷

Last week the BDE-lab enjoyed the fantastic #ECCN25 conference in Alicante. It is so refreshing to see how comparative neurobiology has refurbished its tools, questions and concepts! And the number of species under research keeps growing!! Sara Jiménez Tatiana Raquel Rayo
