Research interests
My research interests focus on behavioral and evolutionary biology. The aim of my PhD project is to test the genetic and behavioural assumptions that may lead to male colour-morph cycling due to male-male competition in the common lizard (Lacerta vivipara). To be more precise I am going to investigate male behavioural traits during the reproductive period and try to link them to male colour morph. The project should further allow to unravel the stability of male behavioural traits in time and their inheritance.
