Mechanosensory interactions drive collective behaviour in Drosophila. [PDF]

Nature, 2015
Collective behaviour enhances environmental sensing and decision-making in groups of animals. Experimental and theoretical investigations of schooling fish, flocking birds and human crowds have demonstrated that simple interactions between individuals can explain emergent group dynamics.

A question of scale

, 2010
If you search for 'collective behaviour' with your web browser most of the texts popping up will be about group activities of humans, including riots, fashion and mass panic. Nevertheless, collective behaviour is also considered to be an important aspect

Sensitivity of nonlinear photoionization to resonance substructure in collective excitation [PDF]

, 2015
Collective behaviour is a characteristic feature in many-body systems, important for developments in fields such as magnetism, superconductivity, photonics and electronics.

'Fuelled' motion: phoretic motility and collective behaviour of active colloids. [PDF]

Chemical Society Reviews, 2017
Designing microscopic and nanoscopic self-propelled particles and characterising their motion have become a major scientific challenge over the past few decades.

Group size and composition influence collective movement in a highly social terrestrial bird

eLife, 2020
A challenge of group-living is to maintain cohesion while navigating through heterogeneous landscapes. Larger groups benefit from information pooling, translating to greater ‘collective intelligence’, but face increased coordination challenges.

Influence of hydrodynamics on many-particle diffusion in 2D colloidal suspensions

, 2003
We study many-particle diffusion in 2D colloidal suspensions with full hydrodynamic interactions through a novel mesoscopic simulation technique. We focus on the behaviour of the effective scaled tracer and collective diffusion coefficients $D_T(\rho ...

Revealing the mechanism and function underlying pairwise temporal coupling in collective motion

Nature Communications
Coordinated motion in animal groups has predominantly been studied with a focus on spatial interactions, such as how individuals position and orient themselves relative to one another.

Social networks predict the life and death of honey bees

Nature Communications, 2021
Honey bee workers take on different tasks for the colony as they age. Here, the authors develop a method to extract a descriptor of the individuals’ social networks and show that interaction patterns predict task allocation and distinguish different ...

The social dilemmas of climate change and antibiotic resistance: an analytic comparison and discussion of policy implications

Humanities & Social Sciences Communications, 2021
Climate change and antimicrobial resistance are two of humanity’s most imminent problems. Reducing the use of fossil fuels and antibiotics is essential for managing the threats, and theory-based policies are required to stimulate urgently needed ...

Sensory collectives in natural systems

eLife, 2023
Groups of animals inhabit vastly different sensory worlds, or umwelten, which shape fundamental aspects of their behaviour. Yet the sensory ecology of species is rarely incorporated into the emerging field of collective behaviour, which studies the ...
