Projektbeschreibung der*des Nominierenden
| Professor Dr. Jacobus Boomsma is one of the scientific leaders in insect sociobiology and evolutionary ecology. His unique talent of combining theoretical explanations with rigorous empirical studies has enabled him to make significant contributions to our understanding of the evolution of animal societies. Among his many achievements probably the most influential one is his development of split sex ratio models and his empirical tests of theses models. This work has changed the way we study sex ratio patterns in nature. |
