Jessica Ploetz Nowicki
Postdoctoral Research Fellow, Biology
Current Research and Scholarly InterestsI am broadly interested in how pro-sociality and underlying neural mechanisms have evolved across animals. Currently, I seek to determine whether the ~450 MYO history of vertebrate pair bonding has relied on repeatedly co-opting similar neural mechanisms.
To test this idea, I use an integrative approach that couples comparative with functional neuroethology.
