Research Interests

The Muth Lab work on the cognitive ecology of wild-foraging and lab-based bumblebees, focusing on cognitive abilities that have a clear function in bees’ natural environments. Current projects in the lab include investigating cognition in relation to complex floral rewards and comparative cognition in wild bumblebees. We also work on anthropogenic effects on bee behavior and cognition, in particular focusing on pesticide exposure.
