Clare Rittschof

Clare Rittschof is an Associate Professor of Entomology. Her research group focuses on integrative insect behavior, incorporating perspectives from behavioral ecology, neuroscience, and genomics to study how experiences and social interactions influence behavior. The group's current research projects are focused on honey bee behavior and health and wild bee agroecology, but past projects have used a number of different arthropod species, and the lab thrives on a broadly comparative scientific framework.
