Collaborative Research: IntBio: Integrating behavior, neurophysiology,and neural circuit m — NSF Award to Florida State University

How can we explain the enormous diversity of life on our planet? For example, there are over 7,000 species of frogs and toads alone. What is the origin of this diversity? Biologists tend to agree that species differ in their basic biology, but how species differences arise is often difficult to study unless one can see

AbstractHow can we explain the enormous diversity of life on our planet? For example, there are over 7,000 species of frogs and toads alone. What is the origin of this diversity? Biologists tend to agree that species differ in their basic biology, but how species differences arise is often difficult to study unless one can see catch species just as they form. Social communication in frogs, where individuals produce sounds heard by others, is a key aspect of what makes a species. This project will explor
