Research Description:
The goal of my research program is to understand basic principals in behavior and behavioral adaptation. By exploring the interface between sensory physiology, behavior, and ecology, my lab seeks to identify basic principals of sensory integration, multimodal communication, complex signal evolution and how organisms adapt to biophysical constraints on these processes. Ongoing work in the lab focuses on vibratory and visual communication in invertebrate model systems. Read more about my research in the Elias Lab website.
Research interests:
Neuroethology, behavioral ecology, and evolutionary biology of arthropods
