| Research Interests | I study the evolution of behaviors that underlie population or community ecology patterns. Much of my work has focused on predator-prey interactions in aquatic systems; however, I have also studied mating and social behavior, and life history evolution. Recent work has included collaborative studies on invasive species and on behavioral ecotoxicology. |
| Areas of Emphasis | Integrative Ecology |
