Abstract

The goal of this symposium "Integrating Cognitive, Motivational and Sensory Biases Underlying Acoustic and Multimodal-Based Mate Choice" was to build a more complete framework in which to understand the mate choice brain. The presentations and papers within this symposium incorporate studies of motivational, cognitive, sensory and salience components of mate choice and highlight future directions that are needed to understand the biological basis of mate choice decision-making.
