The video covers four main studies: the sensitivity of alligators and crocodiles, the discovery of a historic Antarctic exploration camp, a psychological study on discarding negative thoughts, and a study on leadership in schools of fish using a robotic fish. Each study provides insights into different scientific fields, from biology and archaeology to psychology and robotics.
