I am broadly interested in behavioural ecology, and how animals respond to variations in their environment, particularly in response to climate change. Using the long-term Wytham tits dataset, my DPhil project aims to understand how natal conditions, especially in the face of extreme climatic events, can shape phenotypes and behavioural trajectories in wild great tits.
