SENSORY BIOLOGY & BEHAVIORAL
ECOLOGY
The Marine Resources Center (MRC) has a research Program in Sensory
Biology and Behavioral Ecology that takes advantage not only of the
unique features of the MRC facility and the local cape fauna, but acts
as a catalyst to integrate the existing research activities in vision,
balance, and chemical sensing that are performed independently in MBL
laboratories. Examples span investigations of sensory systems, central
nervous system function, and proximate and ultimate mechanisms of
behavior (including behavioral ecology). A common thread is emphasis on
an evolutionary perspective to solve problems that span neuroscience
and behavior.
