Research in my lab examines the factors that influence animal foraging decisions including perception, learning, social learning, and memory. I am particularly fascinated by the role of animal cognition in shaping ecological communities. My research is conducted with bumblebees in the lab at Bowdoin and with a range of taxa in the field on Kent Island.
