New Publication in PLOS One

We have a new publication that has come out in PLOS One titled "Observation and simulation of chemically mediated searches in marine zooplankton." This paper was a collaborative between the Gnathiid Gnation lab at the University of Miami and Peter Hinow's lab at the University of Wisconsin - Milwaukee. In the paper, we mathematically model the chemosensory behavior of parasitic gnathiid isopods locating hosts and coral larvae locating settlement habitat using an adapted version of the theory of Braitenberg vehicles. A link to the open access paper can be found below.
