Exploring Marine Mammal Cognition as a Conservation Tool
Marine Mammal Science, Volume 42, Issue 1, January 2026.ABSTRACT Cognition is an animal's real‐time adaptation system for responding to change. Rapid environmental change, often anthropogenic, is expanding the range and severity of challenges confronting wild animals. Effective conservation requires a multifaceted approach that includes animals' capacities.

Neuronal activity underlying vocal production in bats
Annals of the New York Academy of Sciences, Volume 1550, Issue 1, Page 37-54, August 2025.Bats are known for their highly evolved echolocation and social vocalizations. They have been well studied in terms of auditory processing, but their neural circuits for vocal production are far less understood. This review highlights recent progress in mapping neural activity linked to vocalization in bats.

Marine Mammal Science, Volume 41, Issue 3, July 2025.ABSTRACT Beaked whales (Cetacea; Ziphiidae), one of the most diverse families of cetaceans, can be identified by species‐specific, frequency‐modulated echolocation signals. Of the 24 known species of beaked whales, over half have been assigned a unique signal type. A novel echolocation pulse belonging to an unknown beaked whale species was recorded off
