Andy Adkins’s Reviews > The Mind of a Bee > Status Update

So far there has been no mention of any research testing if or how a bees olfactory system contributes to its processing of waggle dance communication. Will bees witnessing a scout dance be able to find the location his actions describe if travel aromas on the performer are masked to prevent associatively mapped recognition by others

How can excited mirroring dsiplays of attention during bee 'dance' communication inform our understanding of early childhood learning & attention deficits?

Reading about the communicated in the dark dance language of bees & how reward learning impacts their spatial, associative, & working memory has me casting the dendritic & synaptic availability of any neuron or neuronal assembly as being the defining characterisitc of conceptual mirror neurons. I can't wait to see study results when nano probes can provide EEG measures of "hive mind" resonance from 'dancing' bees.
