This research investigates the physiological and neural mechanisms behind food hoarding behavior in birds. By examining the influence of social environments and hormonal factors, the project aims to understand the motivation for food storage in species like the coal tit and great tit.
Dr Lindsay Henderson will move from the University of California Davis, US to Newcastle University in the UK to undertake a project investigating the physiological and neural mechanisms that regulate avian hoarding behaviour and how the social environment influences them.
