Benjamin Goller studies how birds, especially hummingbirds and eagles, sense and respond to their visual and auditory environment, including how they process motion, control flight, and detect potential hazards like wind turbines or bright lights. This work combines neuroscience, sensory biology, and behavior to understand animal perception and inform wildlife conservation strategies. Students in this area would likely engage with topics spanning bird vision, hearing, flight biomechanics, and applied conservation physiology.
