Dr. Nisani on his research: My main research interest is behavioral ecology. Research in my lab encompasses several aspects of scorpion biology (ecology, behavior, and physiology). My research in behavioral ecology deals primarily with scorpion defensive and predatory behavior, venom expenditure by scorpions during stinging in relationship to metabolic cost associated with venom regeneration and their physiology as whole.
