Abstract

After tracking the movements of brown anole lizards (Anolis sagrei), Ambika Kamath discovered that what scientists thought they knew about the lizards' territoriality was based on bias, not evidence. Features ESSAY When Ambika Kamath was a graduate student in evolutionary biology at Harvard University, she knew one thing for sure: She wasn't going to research anoles, the lizards that her adviser, Jonathan Losos, specialized in. "I started out as one of those rebellious renegades", Kamath says. Kamath and Packer are working to change that with a new course in animal behavior that is critical and cross-disciplinary.
