| Research Description | I am interested in the chemosensory mechanisms that control the feeding behavior of insects and mammals. Most of my recent projects have focused on how herbivorous aimals cope with the unpalatable and potentially toxic compounds present in many plant tissues. I have been examining the contribution of taste and viscerosensory response mechanisms to this coping process. I study these phenomena wtih a combination of behavioral, electrophysiological and molecular appoaches. | ||||
