I study the evolution of animal behaviour using a combination of mathematical and computational modelling, behavioural experiments (on humans and other animals) and analysis of large datasets. I am currently a Senior Lecturer in the Centre for Research in Animal Behaviour (CRAB). Broad research specialisms:

  • Animal behaviour
  • Evolution
  • Behavioural ecology
  • Theoretical biology

 

Much of my current work focuses on aggression and mate choice. For more information see my personal website, www.timwfawcett.com.
