作为一名行为生态学家，Balaban-Feld博士在领先的行为、生态学和生物学期刊（Proceedings B, Oecologia, behavioral ecology）上发表了原创威尼斯人赌场研究，并在国内和国际会议上发表了演讲。 杰西认为威尼斯人赌场研究是他教学的延伸，他让本科生参与到科学过程的各个层面。 在他的课程和威尼斯人赌场研究实验室中，学生都有机会设计和进行实验。 His students gain valuable experience learning how to be creative, overcome failure, and find solutions — all skills that help prepare them for the next step in their careers! He uses lecture, lab, and research activities to kindle the same curiosity in his students — with the ultimate goal that they gain a bigger appreciation and interest in learning about and protecting our world.
