Overview

Mandyam V. Srinivasan is affiliated with the University of Queensland in Australia and has contributed extensively to research in agricultural and biological sciences as well as biochemistry, genetics, and molecular biology. Their work focuses primarily on insect and arachnid ecology and behavior, plant and animal studies, and neurobiology and insect physiology research.

Their research portfolio includes several recent publications addressing various aspects of insect flight behavior and sensory processing. Notable papers include:

  • The effect of optic flow cues on honeybee flight control in wind, 2021, published in Proceedings of the Royal Society B Biological Sciences
  • Vision, perception, navigation and 'cognition' in honeybees and applications to aerial robotics, 2020, Biochemical and Biophysical Research Communications
  • Visual guidance of honeybees approaching a vertical landing surface, 2023, Journal of Experimental Biology
  • 3D reconstruction of bird flight trajectories using a single video camera, 2022, PLoS ONE
  • Analysis of collision avoidance in honeybee flight, 2024, Journal of The Royal Society Interface

Srinivasan frequently collaborates with a core group of researchers, including Sridhar Ravi, Matthew Garratt, Mandiyam Y. Mahadeeswara, Emily Baird, and Ingo Schiffner. These collaborative efforts have contributed to advancing knowledge in the fields of behavioral ecology and neurobiology.

Their research has been published in multiple scientific venues, with the most frequent outlets including:

  • Journal of Experimental Biology
  • Bee World
  • bioRxiv (Cold Spring Harbor Laboratory)
  • Journal of Comparative Physiology A
  • Proceedings of the Royal Society B Biological Sciences

The subfields of study represented in Srinivasan's work span genetics, ecology, evolution, behavior and systematics, cellular and molecular neuroscience, biomedical engineering, and ecology. This breadth reflects a multidisciplinary approach, integrating molecular and behavioral methods to explore insect physiology and behavior.
