Overview

I'm a behavioural ecologist with broad interests that have mostly involved animal signalling, predator-prey interactions, social behaviour, cognition and speciation. My study organisms are just as broad, and I have worked on lizards, sticklebacks, guppies and several bird species. My current research involves studying why guppies are capable of rapidly changing their eye colour. More details of my research can be found at my personal website: http://www.robertheathcote.co.uk
