Exploring a Sensory World: From Invertebrates to Vertebrates with Dr. Jorge Molina

In today’s episode, we are honoured to have Dr Jorge Molina, Associate Professor at the Universidad de los Andes, Colombia, and a leading expert in neurobiology and sensory ecology. With a career dedicated to exploring how organisms—ranging from insects and arachnids to electric fish—perceive and adapt to their environments, Dr Molina offers an insightful look into the fascinating world of sensory systems.

His work not only enhances our understanding of how these creatures interact with their surroundings but also highlights the importance of this knowledge for biodiversity conservation.

From uncovering hidden senses to applying science to preserve ecosystems, Dr Molina’s contributions are both profound and inspiring.
