Hans-Joachim Pflüger: scientist, citizen, cosmopolitan

Abstract: On January 25, 2022, Professor Hans-Joachim Pflüger passed away. Hans-Joachim Pflüger conducted research in the field of neuroethology, with a focus on the development, anatomy, and function of sensorimotor networks underlying insect locomotion. As founding member and one of the presidents of the German Neuroscience Society, Hans-Joachim Pflüger was a driving force behind the development of the Neurosciences in Germany and Europe. This obituary reflects on his curriculum vitae. It shall honor his scientific an… Show more

“…Crickets are often used to address questions on acoustic communication (Huber et al 1984;Pires and Hoy 1992;Ronacher 2019;Römer 2021), while locusts are often investigated in the context of orientation behavior (Beetz et al 2016c;Beck et al 2023;Homberg et al 2023) or locomotion (Dürr et al 2018;Dürr and Mesanovic 2023). Because of their relatively large size, descending neurons are highly accessible with electrodes enabling an investigation of flight control and looming induced escape behavior in locusts (Rowell 1989;Santer et al 2006;Duch and Büschges 2022). The dominance of insect research at the ICN is unsurprising because insects represent one of the most diverse and successful animal groups on our planet.…”

“…To commemorate his life and work, the Editor-in-Chief, Günther K. H. Zupanc, invited Carsten Duch and Ansgar Büschges to write an obituary for the Journal . The submitted manuscript underwent peer and editorial review before a revised version was published online on April 25, 2022 (Duch and Büschges 2022a ). However, based on this manuscript version, an essentially identical obituary had appeared 2 weeks earlier, on April 11, 2022, in Neuroforum (Duch and Büschges 2022b ), a journal edited by the Neurowissenschaftliche Gesellschaft e.V.…”
