Classic Article by Bob Boutilier

Our article just came out in the Journal of Experimental Biology!  A few months ago, I was invited by Kathryn Knight of the JEB, to write a classic article highlighting a piece of work by Bob Boutilier that might be considered “classic”.  Bob was my PhD supervisor, who passed away far too young.  Choosing an article that would be deemed a “classic” was initially daunting, since, by definition, a classic might be the “most influential” or “most cited”.  I decided to go with my gut, and choose one of Bob’s papers that was crucial to my own training in comparative physiology, and invited Warren Burggren to help pen a thoughtful tribute to Bob.  Here is the link to the article:
