Program Overview for EVOLUTION AND BEHAVIOUR (PHD) in Canada:
The project's research focus is the evolutionary process responsible for shaping the functional organizational behavior of various organisms. The research focuses on various behaviors that address the key life challenges these creatures face, such as finding food and avoiding predators, attracting and choosing mates, raising offspring, and negotiating expanded social networks.
The focus of research is to examine the underlying adaptive basis of different behavior patterns and understand the underlying genetic, anatomical, physiological, and psychological mechanisms that guide them and their interaction with environmental processes.
The research methods include studying species' behavior in their natural habitat and supplementary experimental research conducted in a controlled laboratory environment.
