Labs studying Entomology
Ìý
Jayaram Lab
The Jayaram Animal Inspired Movement and Robotics Laboratory (AIM-RL) combines biology and robotics to uncover the principles of robustness underlying successful animal locomotion in natural environments and to inspire the design of next generation novel robots for real-world operation.Learn More
Peleg Lab
The Peleg Lab investigates how organisms or super-organism communities buffer themselves against large environmental fluctuations and adapt over a wide range of length and time scales. They combine computation, physics, engineering, mathematics, and biology and look to natural populations such as fireflies and honey bees for bioinspired technological solutions to infrastructure problems, including communications, robotics, and structural engineering.Learn More
Ramsey Lab
The Ramsey Lab focuses on pollinator health with an emphasis on understanding the parasitic mechanisms of bee symbionts, such as parasitic mites, to combat the pollinator pandemic. They also aim to catalog emergent parasites in the native bee ranges of Southeast Asia to prevent future pollinator pandemics. They combine field-based work with technologically creative laboratory-based bee studies.Learn More
