Fly Brains, Comb Jelly Fusion, Dog Voice
Today, you’ll learn about the entire neuron-for-neuron model of a fly brain, jellyfish that can merge together seamlessly, and how talking to our dogs in that way-too-cutesy voice might actually have a purpose. Fly Brains “Researchers simulate an entire fly brain on a laptop. Is a human brain next?” by Robert Sanders. 2024. “A Drosophila computational brain model reveals sensorimotor processing.” by Philip K. Shiu, et al. 2024. Comb Jelly Fusion “Injured comb jellies can fuse into a single organism.” by Jacek Krywko. 2024. “Rapid physiological integration of fused ctenophores.” by Kei Jokura, et al. 2024. Dog Voice “Our cutesy cringey dog voices could be practical, after all.” SciMex. 2024. “Dog-human vocal interactions match dogs’ sensory-motor tuning.” by Eloise C. Deaux, et al. 2024.
