This year marks the 100th birthday of #bioacoustics, established by Ivan Regen in 1925, which studies how animals hear, produce and propagate sound.

Let’s discover this discipline with @nicolasmathevon.bsky.social, Professor of Saint Etienne University, in the first episode of Acoustic World.

🗣️What makes music and language exclusively human?
🐾How do other animals communicate?
🎶Do they perceive melodies and rhythms as we do?

🎧ACOUSTIC WORLD is a podcast to explore bioacoustics and find answers to these and more questions.
Because the world has always spoken, you just need to listen!

It was a great pleasure to present at the ICMPC18 my poster on perceptual biases in zebra finches! 🐦

I came out from the conference with new friends, cool insights and a lot of questions about our and other species music perception!

Finding that collaboration between fields is the key! 💪
