I am proud to present our recent #neuroethology paper on #magnetoreception in #ants today on the #InternationalDayofWomenandGirlsinScience where all authors are #WomenInSTEM @chiaratenne.bsky.social 🤩👩🔬🧪🧠🐜🧭
Thanks to @sfb1372.bsky.social for featuring our research in a video 🤩 doi.org/10.1007/s003...
"Desert ants are remarkable for their magnetic sense; but they are also masters of adaptation. They thrive in some of the world’s most extreme environments, enduring temperatures that can exceed 50°C (122°F)."

Like a compass needle trembling towards true north, our scars recalibrate us, magnetizing resolve from the iron filings of adversity.

As a compass needle trembles, seeking true north, so too must we oscillate between action and stillness to calibrate our path.
