Biography and Research Information

OverviewAI-generated summary

Yi Ting Ter investigates the genetic and hormonal regulation of behavioral plasticity in butterflies, specifically focusing on the *Bicyclus anynana* species. Their research explores how genes like *yellow* influence male courtship behavior and how this behavior is modulated by hormonal signals during development. Ter's work also examines the temporal dynamics of sensory perception and learning in butterflies, investigating asynchronous patterns between female olfactory sensitivity and male courtship displays. This research contributes to understanding the complex interplay between genes, hormones, and behavior in animals, with implications for evolutionary biology and sensory neuroscience. Ter has collaborated with researchers from the University of Arkansas at Fayetteville and the Arkansas Agricultural Experiment Station.
