Bird Courtship


Members of Patricelli's lab study animal communi- cation and sexual selection, with a focus on understanding the amazing diversity and complexity in animal signals. Patricelli received additional National Science Foundation (NSF) funds for this research through the American Recovery and Reinvestment Act (ARRA) of 2009, which will allow her to continue her research for another three years. Among other things, the ARRA funding will pay for the salaries of her team of post graduate and graduate students who will gain research experience in the field.
