Collective sensing in electric fish. (https://pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/38448593/)
These scientists studied a type of fish called the African weakly electric fish to see how they use their electrical pulses to sense their environment. They found that these fish can use the electrical pulses of other fish to help them sense things better and communicate with each other. This is like how some animals like dolphins and bats use sounds to find their way around. The scientists used computer models, recorded the fish's brain activity, and watched how they behaved to learn more about how they use these electrical signals to help them see and understand their surroundings.
