Welcome to the Department of Evolutionary Ecology at the Ludwig-Maximilians University

Nicolas Gompel is the head of the chair at which three different research groups are working.

Feel free to contact and to visit us - we look forward to hearing from you!

BildEvolution & Development (Nicolas Gompel):

We are using closely related species of the fly genus Drosophila to pin down the genetic changes underlying the evolution of pigmentation patterns, courtship behaviours, and other reproduction-related traits.

AquaAquatic Ecology (Herwig Stibor):

The focus of our research is on experimental analyses of limnic and marine pelagic food web dynamics.

 

behavioural_ecolBehavioural Ecology (Niels Dingemanse):

Our main research focuses on the behavioural ecology of variation in labile phenotypic characters across hierarchical levels. We study primarily variation between and within individuals.
