PhD opportunity to do psychophysics on 🐓 🐠 & 🐀! @SWBio_DTP studentship to model animal perception of camouflaged prey using artificial observers. Apply here 👉 findaphd.com/phds/project/m… #PhD #AnimalCamouflage #colsci
We also have an additional, separately funded version for UK-domiciled, applicants of Black or mixed Black heritage: findaphd.com/phds/project/f… If you qualify, please consider applying to both to maximise your chances! Also feel free to get in touch for more info! #Phd #colsci
🚨PhD Opportunity Alert!🚨 Fully funded studentship to develop artificial observers modelled on real ones (humans & chickens) to explore detection times across vast colour & texture combinations for camouflage! Apply here 👉 findaphd.com/phds/project/e… #PhD #AnimalCamouflage #colsci
Our exciting finding that #iridescence in #jewelbeetles works as #camouflage is OUT NOW in @CurrentBiology @CellPressNews cell.com/current-biolog… #colsci #buprestidae #beetles #entomology #insects @Camo_Lab @BristolBioSci @VisionInstitue
Why don't we see any scarlet squirrels and turquoise tigers? Bright, vivid colours are rare amongst mammals. @Gizmodo recently asked a panel of folks working on animal colouration, including Innes, Tim and myself from @Camo_Lab, why that might be the case. gizmodo.com/why-arent-ther…

David Attenborough's Life in Colour is now available on @netflix with an extra "making of" episode! Check out episode 3 "Chasing colour" which features @jgfennell, @MaxHugWilliams and myself demonstrating how challenging it is to spot tigers if you are colour blind like a deer!
Giving a talk about recent scientific adventures this afternoon. It will be on Zoom and it’s open to everyone!

Stay tuned for tigers this weekend! The 2nd episode of Attenborough's Life in Colour is airing this Sunday - @jgfennell and I worked with @HumbleBeeFilms to show that the orange colour of tigers could be adaptive & provide excellent camouflage against prey bbc.co.uk/programmes/m00…
Interested in a PhD on agriculture and deep learning? We are advertising a fully-funded studentship at @BristolUni with the aim to create an automated vision-based system to assess welfare of chicken on poultry farms. More info here: findaphd.com/phds/project/c… Deadline 9th April.
Life in Colour: excited to reveal book to accompany new Attenborough BBC TV series! Book out 25 & TV show on 28 Feb on BBC 1. All about the amazing diversity of colour in nature & how other animals use and see it. #colsci amazon.co.uk/Life-Colour-Ho… Trailer: youtube.com/watch?v=V4cBzk…
John, @trilbytricks, Innes, Roland and @NickScottSamuel bringing the #colsci awesome in their latest #camo paper: "The #camouflage Machine: Optimizing Protective #Coloration using #DeepLearning with #Genetic #Algorithms" in @journal_evo onlinelibrary.wiley.com/doi/full/10.11…

What's the best camouflage for a given background? Our new paper describes a method based on genetic algorithms and deep learning that can explore and predict reaction times to a vast number of colour-texture combinations and is now publised in Evolution: doi.org/10.1111/evo.14…
Fully funded PhD on the dynamics of great bowerbird courtship displays with me, @SensoryEcology and @DrMartinJohnHow. Based in Cornwall with fieldwork in Australia, deadline 8th Jan 2021. Further info: bit.ly/34oRiDU @GW4plusDTP @UoExeterCEC (vid BBC Earth)
The bug hunt is on! In our latest #citizenscience game, find the hidden shieldbugs and watch camouflage evolve: with every play, your results shape the next generation of targets, so they should become harder and harder to spot! evolution.sensoryecology.com

A Generative Adversarial Network based approach that only requires the transmission of a reference image and facial reference points. Rotating the face to look into the camera is insanely cool and useful! Wonder what kit you will require for processing locally though... @davrull
