Talking Points

Recent interactions between the hosts and their guests.

Guided by the Stars: The Fascinating World of Dung Beetles and Navigation with Marie Dacke
Q: Could you give us an overview about your current research focus and how your findings contribute to your knowledge of safe navigation systems in land, air or in water?
I think I spent maybe 10 years or so actually documented what compass cues these beetles can use.
Guided by the Stars: The Fascinating World of Dung Beetles and Navigation with Marie Dacke
Q: Can you share first, because personally I really love the Ig Nobel Prize. It's science that makes you laugh and wonder, but then it clearly makes sense.
We got the Nobel Prize because we took dung beetles to a planetarium and also put hats on them.
The Brain’s Predictive Power: A Conversation with Georg Keller
Q: What advice or insights do you have for young neuroscientists?
Keller advises to pursue what genuinely interests them rather than focusing solely on long-term career plans.
The Brain’s Predictive Power: A Conversation with Georg Keller
Q: Do you think that being such a rebel or starting from a totally different field helps you now?
He believes that having different perspectives can help scientists avoid taking established knowledge for granted.
The Brain’s Predictive Power: A Conversation with Georg Keller
Q: Could you share some key experiences that led you to specialize as you are now investigating cortical processing and cortical computing in the neocortex?
Keller discussed his initial experiences at the Zurich Institute and how encounters with prominent figures and debates in neuroscience led him to focus on cortical processing.
