Alejandro Kacelnik is a Professor of Behavioural Ecology at the Department of Zoology, University of Oxford, and an E.P. Abraham Fellow at Pembroke College, University of Oxford. His work bridges Behavioural Ecology, Evolution of Behaviour, and Mathematical Modelling, focusing on decision-making in animals under ecological constraints.
- University: University of Oxford
- Academic Rank: Professor
- Department: Department of Zoology
Dr. Kacelnik’s research explores risk sensitivity, foraging strategies, and tool use in birds. He investigates how animals adaptively balance delay vs. reward magnitude and social vs. solitary foraging. His studies on New Caledonian crows and Goffin's cockatoos reveal spontaneous tool innovation and sequential problem-solving.
His scientific awards include:
- 2011 Comparative Cognition Society recognition
- 2011 Fellow of the Royal Society
- 2004 Cogito Prize
- 2003 Member of the Academia Europaea
His publications span topics like economic rationality in starlings, mobbing behavior in mockingbirds, and mechanisms of decision-making. His work often integrates experimental studies with evolutionary theory to explain cognitive adaptations.
