animal cognition in urban environments the effect of diet and the gut microbiome

natural habitats are disappearing at record speeds and our world is becoming increasingly urbanised recently researchers started exploring how cognitive abilities the mechanisms by which animals acquire process store and act on information from the environment may allow animals to adapt to urban environments many of these studies revealed cognitive differences between urban and nonurban dwelling animals and linked these to informational challenges related to the highly dynamic nature of urban environments here i hypothesize that urban diets also contribute to such cognitive differences although labbased studies indeed showed important effects of diet on the development of cognition this idea so far received little attention in the urban cognition literature i will address this important knowledge gap by combining theoretical frameworks and methodology from psychology ecology and microbial sciences furthermore as most of the previous work linking urbanization with cognition was correlational in nature i will supplement my interdisciplinary approach with a powerful combination of controlled laboratory experiments and measures of cognition in the wild specifically i will test how highfat highsugar diets wp1 and the gut microbiome wp2 shape cognition in three domains that are considered crucial for survival in urban environments namely spatial learning inhibitory control and social learning i will use feral pigeons a species that thrives in urban environments and whose diet varies widely between urban and nonurban environments as my model species this project will build on my experience as an animal cognition researcher allow me to develop new methods to measure cognition and acquire new skills in gps tracking and microbiology by combining approaches from different fields and continuing implementing openscience practices this project will raise my profile internationally in the field of cognitive ecology

teaching greek in eleventhcentury byzantium schedography and its methods

schedography is a byzantine method of teaching greek grammar that was popular from the eleventh century to the early modern period the study of this method enables a better understanding of 1 which kind of greek was taught and how its teaching was conducted in medieval schools 2 the influence of school curriculum on writing and reading practices in byzantium 3 the purposes of byzantine education and cultural politics the existent studies offer sound but general overviews and several schedographic sources are unedited furthermore there is the lack of a consistent approach to the study of the edited schedographic sources my project addresses this issue by looking at the eleventh century when this method began to spread i will frame schedography within the context of eleventhcentury byzantine culture and of contemporary school practices furthermore i will examine the most relevant source for this period the handbook by longibardos to describe its teaching method through a linguistic and stylistic analysis my project will also lead to a critical edition of longibardos handbook and other unedited eleventhcentury schedographic remnants teagre will offer both the first study of schedography and its early evolution as well as a consistent linguistic and stylistic approach to schedographic sources the simultaneous presence of the ercfunded projects mela and evwrit at ghent university places my msca fellowship within a context of substantial and innovative research on classical late antique and medieval greek language and education the edition of longibardos and eleventhcentury schedographic texts will also expand the database for the study of greek literature and language that is currently being developed at ghent university through this fellowship i will improve my professional profile into a more complete greek scholar and my project will provide me with the proof of concept for my further research on this topic
