Tali Magory Cohen is a Ph.D. student in zoology, interested in understanding how acute environmental changes shape evolutionary processes, predominantly in endangered or invasive vertebrate species. Most of her studies are focused on questions within the fields of behavioural ecology, invasion biology and conservation genomics. She works on projects of global scope, both in the field and in the lab.

Roi Dor leads the Lab of Evolutionary Biology and Behavioral Ecology of Birds. The Lab focuses on research that brings together behavioral ecology and evolutionary biology to address questions regarding the evolution of traits and the role they play for generation and maintenance of biodiversity. To accomplish this, the group combines experimental work in the field with molecular lab work and collaborates with multiple groups worldwide.
