Robert A. Raguso, researcher and full-time professor for the Department of Neurobiology and Behavior at Cornell University, has explored the intersection between the chemistry of scents and the behavioral biology of pollinators for roughly a decade, yielding several publications, inspired students, and the most surprising of results to this burgeoning field. He continues to teach students about the mechanistic, evolutionary, developmental, and functional aspects of animal behavior, as well as lead a research laboratory focusing on plant-pollinator communication, specifically by investigating the hawk moth species.
