About the Morris Laboratory
Our lab is interested in the evolution of mating behaviors, animal communication, alternative reproductive tactics and diet induced obesity. Swordtail and platy fishes (Xiphophorus) provide an excellent system in which to study these topics.

When Erin Binne took an Animal Behavior class taught by Professor Molly Morris, she had no idea some of the lessons she learned then would help her keep an entire colony of zebrafish alive later for her future job.
