Changku Kang

I am currently an assistant professor at Seoul National University. My research interest lies in the field of behavioural ecology, especially concerning animal colouration as an adaptive trait. I am also generally fascinated with investigating the overwhelming diversity of animal life and how they are formed through evolutionary processes.
