About . Ed(S): Ebensperger, Luis A.; Hayes, Loren D.
Luis A. Ebensperger, P. Universidad Católica de Chile, Chile Luis Ebensperger has developed a research career to examine causes (ecological, evolutionary) and consequences of rodent social living. He has successfullycombined field observational, demographical, and lab approaches to address why animals congregate, how they cooperate, and what are the fitness effectsof group-living and cooperation. His recent work has addressed the neuroendocrine ... Read more
