Laskowski K, Bierbach D, Jolles J, Doran C, Wolf M
Nat Commun . 2022 Oct; 13(1):6419. PMID: 36307437
Behavioral individuality is a ubiquitous phenomenon in animal populations, yet the origins and developmental trajectories of individuality, especially very early in life, are still a black box. Using a high-resolution...

Doran C, Bierbach D, Lukas J, Klamser P, Landgraf T, Klenz H, et al.
Curr Biol . 2021 Dec; 32(3):708-714.e4. PMID: 34942081
The collective behavior of animals has attracted considerable attention in recent years, with many studies exploring how local interactions between individuals can give rise to global group properties. The functional...

Laskowski K, Doran C, Bierbach D, Krause J, Wolf M
Nat Ecol Evol . 2019 Jan; 3(2):161-169. PMID: 30692622
Science requires replication. The development of many cloned or isogenic model organisms is a testament to this. But researchers are reluctant to use these traditional animal model systems for certain...

Franks N, Worley A, Grant K, Gorman A, Vizard V, Plackett H, et al.
Proc Biol Sci . 2016 Feb; 283(1825):20152946. PMID: 26911961
Social behaviour may enable organisms to occupy ecological niches that would otherwise be unavailable to them. Here, we test this major evolutionary principle by demonstrating self-organizing social behaviour in the...

Doran C, Stumpe M, Sendova-Franks A, Franks N
R Soc Open Sci . 2016 Feb; 3(1):150533. PMID: 26909180
How do animals in groups organize their work? Division of labour, i.e. the process by which individuals within a group choose which tasks to perform, has been extensively studied in...

Masuda N, OShea-Wheller T, Doran C, Franks N
R Soc Open Sci . 2015 Nov; 2(6):140533. PMID: 26543578
Collective decision-making is a characteristic of societies ranging from ants to humans. The ant Temnothorax albipennis is known to use quorum sensing to collectively decide on a new home; emigration...

Franks N, Stuttard J, Doran C, Esposito J, Master M, Sendova-Franks A, et al.
Sci Rep . 2015 Jul; 5:11890. PMID: 26153535
We show that one of the advantages of quorum-based decision-making is an ability to estimate the average value of a resource that fluctuates in quality. By using a quorum threshold,...

Martins C, Doran C, Silva I, Miranda C, Rueff J, Rodrigues A
Chem Biol Interact . 2014 May; 218:1-9. PMID: 24792648
Myristicin, an allylbenzene, is a major active component of various spices, such as nutmeg and cinnamon, plants from the Umbelliferae family or in some essential oils, such as oils of...

Doran C, Pearce T, Connor A, Schlegel T, Franklin E, Sendova-Franks A, et al.
Biol Lett . 2013 Oct; 9(5):20130685. PMID: 24088565
Organisms should invest more in gathering information when the pay-off from finding a profitable resource is likely to be greater. Here, we ask whether animal societies put more effort in...

Martins C, Doran C, Laires A, Rueff J, Rodrigues A
Food Chem Toxicol . 2010 Nov; 49(2):385-92. PMID: 21087650
Some food flavourings, such as safrole and methyleugenol, are known for their genotoxic and hepatocarcinogenic properties whereas for others, such as myristicin, there is less data. Myristicin and eugenol are...
