How do birds navigate?

Bird migration is driven mostly by weather and the availability of food. But how birds migrate from one region to another without getting lost is less well understood. ERC grantees Henrik Mouritsen and Peter Hore are looking into how birds sense the geomagnetic field to help them navigate. This unique scientific collaboration between biologists and chemists is paving the way for a new field of science: quantum biology.
