Loggerhead turtles “dance” when exposed to food-associated magnetic fields, and their magnetic map may help them return to specific areas after long migrations.

Sea turtles are capable of creating GPS-like magnetic maps to guide them back to foraging grounds, and they do a little dance ...

Scientists discover turtles use Earth's magnetic field to create a personal map of their favorite spots, proving animals can ...

Combining experiments in microfluidic devices and computer simulation, this study provides a valuable analysis of the relevant parameters that determine the motility of (multicellular) magnetotactic ...

Loggerhead sea turtles ( Caretta caretta) are pretty loyal marine reptiles. Even with their roughly 8,000-mile-long ...

Baby loggerhead turtles “dance” when they are expecting food, a behaviour that researchers have used to investigate their navigation abilities. By learning to associate a magnetic field with a food, ...

Sea turtles have long mystified researchers by returning to beaches where they were hatched, magnetic signals may be the key, ...

This work presents potentially important findings suggesting that a combination of transcranial stimulation approaches applied for a short period could improve memory performance after administration.
