Biography and Research Information

OverviewAI-generated summary

Brooke Kester's research focuses on insect behavior, specifically investigating the temporal dynamics of olfactory sensitivity and courtship in butterflies. Her work examines how female butterflies' sensitivity to smells changes over time and how this relates to male courtship behaviors. Kester has published one paper on this topic, "Female olfactory sensitivity is temporally asynchronous with male courtship in a butterfly" (2025), which has received one citation. Kester collaborates with several researchers at the University of Arkansas at Fayetteville, including Erica L. Westerman, Neelendra K. Joshi, Matthew J. Murphy, and Yi Ting Ter, with whom she shares a publication.
