About

I am interested in individual variation of diel timing and chronotypes in Great Tits.

Biography

Graphical abstract: Chronotypes are determined by the environment and genetics through the circadian clock. Different chronotypes might have different fitness and could therefore be selected for. The environment plays a role in several places by affecting the clock, the daily rhythms directly, and the selection.
