The ubiquity of consistent inter-individual differences in behavior ("animal personalities") [1,
2] suggests that they might play a fundamental role in driving the movements and …

Choosing among spatially distributed options is a central challenge for animals, from deciding
among alternative potential food sources or refuges to choosing with whom to associate. …

Groups of animals inhabit vastly different sensory worlds, or umwelten, which shape
fundamental aspects of their behaviour. Yet the sensory ecology of species is rarely incorporated …

We investigate key principles underlying individual, and collective, visual detection of stimuli,
and how this relates to the internal structure of groups. While the individual and collective …

Many animal behaviours exhibit complex temporal dynamics, suggesting there are multiple
timescales at which they should be studied. However, researchers often focus on behaviours …

Animals that travel together in groups must constantly come to consensus about both the
direction and speed of movement, often simultaneously. Contributions to collective decisions …

Biological systems—from cells to tissues to individuals to societies—are hierarchically
organised, which suggests there are multiple natural scale at which these systems should be …

Choosing among spatially-distributed options is a central challenge for animals, from deciding

We present results from a large-scale experiment on pretraining encoders with non-embedding
parameter counts ranging from 700M to 9.3B, their subsequent distillation into smaller …
