BAT behavior - Abstract
Brain activity is monitored separately via electrodes recording from a variety of brain regions and feeding neural data into tiny, lightweight loggers attached to each bat's head. And it was here, in 2019, that Yartsev and postdoctoral researcher Wujie Zhang were the first to show that bat brains synchronize just as human brains do. A 2021 study led by Maimon Rose and Boaz Styr, then both members of Yartsev's lab, revealed that when one bat emits a call, it induces collective brain coupling among all listening bats. NEUROSCIENTISTS USUALLY INVESTIGATE ONE BRAIN AT A TIME. [Extracted from the article]
