summaryThe honey bee is a marvellous model in neuroethology regarding cognition. However, some of the bees' behavioural achievements, like their complex social interactions and dance behaviouras well as their navigational skills, have not been investigated with neurophysiological methods yet. Here, I will show how neuronal activity and social interaction correlate inside the hive. I will also show the neuronal correlates of flight trajectories of bees outside the hive. These experiments go hand in hand with the planned projectof recording single spike activity from bees learning complex memory tasks in virtual reality.
