Anna Dornhaus

Professor
  • Department of Ecology and Evolutionary Biology

ANNA DORNHAUS got her PhD from the University of Würzburg. Her research centers on complex collective behaviors in social insects, ants, and bees—how they communicate or make decisions as a group, and how these strategies can be applied to distributed computing. In teaching she focuses on how the scientific method is key to gaining objective information, and with “The Cricket Project” she supports elementary school teachers in bringing hands-on science to the classroom.
