Research

My main interest is the among-individual variation in behaviour and cognition that creates such astounding diversity of phenotypes. To better understand causes and consequences of this variation, I study animal personality and cognition in the frame of non-native and human-altered environments.

Current projects include:

Personality & Cognition

Smart & flexible aliens

Adjustments to human-altered environments

Innovation: from diffusion to fitness consequences

Two mice in front of an opened set-up

Wild innovation

Invertebrate cognition & welfare
