Main Focus
My research focuses on understanding the behavior, ecology, and
development of social animals - especially bats and primates. These two
groups of mammals show high amounts of diversity in social
organization and ecology and are great comparative groups to understand
the evolution of mammalian social organization & life history and
their relationship to ecology.
