In this collaboration, Dr. Moss leads the SCENE Bat Team, conducting studies on action planning and navigation in echolocating bats. Her lab uses a specialized multimedia facility to analyze bat flight and sonar behavior during natural tasks like landing and prey capture.
Led by Máté Lengyel (Cambridge University and Central European University), SCENE integrates cutting-edge neuroscience, behavioral science, and data science. The program's cross-species approach spans human infants, non-human primates, mice, and bats, aiming to uncover how the brain encodes affordances—opportunities for action provided by the environment.
Moss collaborates with Nachum Ulanovsky (Weizmann Institute), who leads complementary bat navigation experiments in large outdoor mazes. Together, their work contributes to SCENE’s mission to define core neuro-computational principles underlying natural behavior.
