This laboratory is an authentic research experience course where students contribute to original research. In one module, students will perform experiments in the field of chemical ecology by screening for novel natural compounds that influence animal behavior. This will involve on campus field work and laboratory experiments. In a second module, students will conduct animal behavior experiments that examine sensory systems in a laboratory setting. Students will work collaboratively to collect and analyze data and will learn to communicate their findings through a journal-style scientific article.
