Lecturer, University of Hull
My research focuses on understanding how animals, mostly birds, but also bees, make decisions based on the information they can gather, and which cognitive abilities might support those decisions. How does the environment shape what types of information animals learn, remember, and ultimately use to solve everyday problems? How do these abilities vary between species? To study cognition in wild animals, I use two ecologically relevant behaviours: foraging and building. Both behaviours present numerous opportunities to study learning and memory of different types of cues in ecologically relevant contexts.
