Visual Gene evolution 

We examine how vision genes evolve in Lepidoptera using bioinformatic tools. By leveraging the huge increase in publicly available we can examine this question across different ecological variables like time of activity or feeding behaviour.

DIY activity Monitoring

We built a low cost DIY portable locomotion activity monitor or pLAM for short. We used it to measure activity of moths under various artificial and natural light conditions in the lab and the field, but the device can be used for monitoring any behaviour even in limited light conditions by leveraging IR light and cameras.
