Phenomena of collective behaviour can be found all around us in animals, humans, plants, even robots. It fascinates, but still poses many puzzles, which is why “In the Swarm” discusses collective phenomena. Every episode, Dr Nack Srismith, interviews a researcher from the Cluster of Excellence Centre for the Advanced Study of Collective Behaviour at the University of Konstanz. The researchers come from various international science backgrounds, but they all have one thing in common: their love for swarms. Join us and dive into the minds behind the hives!
