Projects

Our research is funded by intramural funds of the University of Vienna and University of Veterinary Medicine, Vienna, and by several grants awarded by Austrian and international agencies including the Austrian Academy of Science (OeAW), the Austrian Science Fund (FWF), the European Union, and the Vienna Science and Technology Fund (WWTF).  If you wish to contribute to our research, please contact us!

  • Cognition and Communication 2
  • Coping with change: The influence of early experience, nutrition and stress on behavioral flexibility
  • Comparative aesthetics: A novel approach to investigate multi-modal attractiveness in humans and animals
  • Cost and benefits of formation flight in birds
