Journal of Experimental Biology is the leading primary research journal in comparative physiology and publishes papers on the form and function of living organisms at all levels of biological organisation, from the molecular and subcellular to the integrated whole animal.
Our authors and readers reflect a broad interdisciplinary group of scientists who study molecular, cellular and organismal physiology in an evolutionary and environmental context.
SPECIAL ISSUE – Linking Brain and Behaviour in Animal Navigation
Special issues
Linking brain and behaviour in animal navigation
Guest editors:
Animals show impressive navigational abilities. They move on their own or in large groups and use mechanisms such as visual landmarks, olfaction, magnetic maps and celestial cues, often integrated with internal cues for self-motion. This series of Review articles investigates navigation at the behavioural and physiological level, with the aim of unravelling how neural processes and behaviour are linked during spatial orientation and navigation in organisms ranging from insects, snails and fish to rats, humans and robots.
