PROJECT SPOTLIGHT

Insect vision & navigation

Given the crucial role of spatial knowledge for life on earth, it is of fundamental importance to understand the rules and the mechanisms that have evolved for animals to be competent navigators, and in particular the active, anticipatory learning that is involved in acquiring navigational competence.
