Rethinking same-sex sexual behavior: From sensory error to social function

Pacific field crickets in Hawaii evolved quieter songs to evade invasive flies, but flies adapted, illustrating a rapid evolutionary arms race driven by climate change.

Hello and welcome! We study how animals navigate an extraordinarily complex world, where interactions with both conspecifics and heterospecifics influence their survival and reproduction. At the heart of our research is a central question: Can organisms shape their own evolutionary trajectories through behaviour? To explore this, we focus on how animals manage predation risk—and how…

Workshop IV: Modeling Multi-Scale Collective Intelligences

Many animals exhibit size assortative mating (SAM), but how predation affects it remains largely unknown. We hypothesized that predation risk may turn prey less choosy, disrupting SAM, or reduce the ....
