We have several research projects ongoing in the lab.
Evolution of hoarding behaviour
Comparison of avian and mammalian hippocampus – microcircuitry
Comparison of avian and mammalian hippocampus – stress sensitivity
This project also aims to develop novel measures of long-term animal welfare
Comparison of avian and mammalian emotional circuitry
This project also aims to develop novel measures of short-term animal welfare
Evolution of memory systems – memory specialization in hoarding birds
This project includes validating novel memory tasks in humans
