Personal profile
Research interests
I'm a behavioural ecologist, interested in the evolution of animal behaviour and life histories. I’m happy to consider using a range of theoretical and empirical techniques to address how organisms interact with the environment and with each other, and I enjoy collaboration, so please contact me if you have a question you think I’d be interested in.
Topics I'm interested in:
- Behavioural ecology
- Social behaviour
- Decision-making
- Evolution
- Parasite ecology
