Learning to avoid collisions: Bees use cues perceived before and after a collision to prevent negative consequences during navigation in cluttered areas

Manon Jeschke, Maximilian Stahlsmeier, Olivier J. N. Bertrand, Martin Egelhaaf

This study shows bumblebees can associate visual cues with collision experiences, avoiding high-risk areas based on cues before or after collisions.

Navigating in clutter: How bumblebees optimize flight behaviour through experience

Manon Jeschke, Maximilian Stahlsmeier, Martin Egelhaaf, Olivier J. N. Bertrand

This study shows that experienced bumblebees optimize flight in cluttered environments through learning, not just reflexes, as transparent obstacles affect naive bees more than experienced ones.
