Polyandry is the rule, not the exception: Dr. Kristin Hook

Dr. Kristin Hook completed a Ph.D. in Neurobiology and Behavior from Cornell University in 2016.  She taught at Cornell University and at the University of Maryland from 2016-2018 about animal behavior and comparative physiology.  Her research reveals the complexity of female mating behavior within polyandrous species and the consequent dynamic post-copulatory processes responsible for behavioral, morphological, and physiological traits involved in reproduction.  She has worked with rattlebox moths, seed beetles, and now Peromyscus mice.  At the symposium (Reproduction: the Female Perspective from an Integrative and Comparative Framework), Dr. Hook will speak on The Importance of Female Reproductive Traits: From Mice to Seed Beetles.
