Giulia Cimarelli

Giulia Cimarelli, a Lecturer in Behavioural Ecology, focuses on animal behavior, particularly the interplay between object-directed behaviors and human-animal sociability in free-ranging dog puppies. Her recent research, published in iScience, examines behavioral patterns and their implications in developmental psychology and comparative cognition. She collaborates across disciplines, contributing to neuroscience and ethology domains.

Research Trends and Fields: Giulia's work bridges behavioral ecology and neuroscience, emphasizing sociability, developmental dynamics, and interspecies interactions. Her first-author article highlights methodological rigor in studying animal cognition through naturalistic observations.
