Some dogs have an exceptional talent for learning object labels. Our new study in @SciReports finds what are the characteristics of these gifted dogs. Check the🧵 for a summary or have a look 👉🏼

Just finished giving my first plenary conference talk, as part of the Young Research of the Year Award, at the MET conference. I am honored and deeply touched by this personal gift showing me with my dog Mitos.

I just submitted two manuscripts in 24 hours (one 1st submission, one revision). I feel like I broke some phd student record. P.s. submission portals suck.

Love this study: ✅️Important theoretical contribution ✅️Important applied contribution ✅️New methods It helps us understand our dogs better and makes a step towards understanding the genetics of food intake (hopefully) also in humans.
Our new research finds around a quarter of all Labrador retriever dogs face a double-whammy of feeling hungry all the time and burning fewer calories due to a genetic mutation 🧬🐶 1/6 🧵

@frostbite2024 Thank you for sharing our research! It actually does not seem to be a breed specific trait. Even though most of the GWL are BCs, the ability to learn object labels is still a very rare talent that is not at all common among BCs.
