Lucy Farrow

Dr. Lucy Farrow is a Lecturer in Biomedical Science at the University of New England's School of Science and Technology, specializing in neurobiology and avian cognition. Her research investigates how anthropogenic stressors affect neural development and cognition in native bird species.

Research explores avian neuroethology through behavioral experiments and cellular analysis. Key interests include acoustic individual recognition in wild passerines, neural impacts of environmental stressors, and context-specific antipredator behaviors. Work integrates quantitative neurobiological methods with field observations to study cognitive adaptations.

Publications reveal focus on avian communication systems, particularly alarm call semantics and individual recognition, alongside emerging work on automated mobility systems. Recent studies examine noisy miner cognition and neurobiological techniques like flow cytometry for neuronal quantification.
