Aquatic behaviour and physiology projects
The Aquatic Behaviour and Physiology projects at CSAR bring together research groups led by Andrew King and Ines Fürtbauer to investigate the behaviour and physiology of various aquatic species.
Recent and current research is funded by NERC, FSBI, The Royal Society, and The Leverhulme Trust.
Some examples of recent research outputs are:
