Why Is Bob Wong Influential?
(Suggest an Edit or Addition)According to Wikipedia, Bob B.M. Wong is a Professor in the School of Biological Sciences at Monash University, Australia, and the Secretary of the International Society for Behavioral Ecology . He is a biologist and academic with his research focusing on the evolution of animal mating systems and behavior, and how investment in sex influences reproductive strategies and biological diversity. His current work focuses on the impacts of environmental change on animal behaviour and the evolutionary process. In 2019 he became a subject editor for Animal Behaviour and Oikos Journal. He was granted a Future Fellowship by the Australian Research Council and is also Chair of the Organizing Committee for the upcoming 2024 Congress of the ISBE in Melbourne, Australia. He was born in Singapore and currently resides in Melbourne, Victoria.
