About ​EPIC.

Environmental Psychology Innovation Center (EPIC) is in the department of biology at University of Miami (Go Canes!). The lab is supported National Institute for Environmental Health and Safety R00 grant.  We study the environmental determinants of social behavior in wild and domesticated animals. 

We use field and lab studies to understand the neural and genetic mechanisms that underlie environmentally-induced behavior.
