Phenomena of collective behaviour can be found all around us in animals, humans, plants, even robots. It fascinates, but still poses many puzzles, which is why “In the Swarm” discusses collective phenomena. Every episode, Dr Nack Srismith, interviews a researcher from the Cluster of Excellence Centre for the Advanced Study of Collective Behaviour at the University of Konstanz. The researchers come from various international science backgrounds, but they all have one thing in common: their love for swarms. Join us and dive into the minds behind the hives! New episodes every two weeks.Centre for the Advanced Study of Collective Behaviour Ciencia

    What is it like being inside an egg? Can you feel your sibling eggs nearby? Do you – can you – try to talk to them? Let them know you are here as well? How do you tell your parents when you are ready to come out? We are so delighted to be joined today by Dr Gabriella Gall who is here to tell us all about her research into the world of egg communication.

    Most of us have heard of the plague of locusts. But did you know that to this day, desert locust plagues still threaten the food security of millions? In this episode, Yannick Günzel and Inga Petelski will tell us all about how the population density and social order within a locust population can transform shy, solitary locusts into hungry, gregarious ones who are ready to march with millions of their friends to search for the next meal.
