Couzin's work is aimed at understanding how collective behaviour in animals emerges, using a combination of fieldwork, computer simulations, lab experiments, and mathematical models. His work with army ants showed how they move forming traffic lanes that optimizes their movement and avoids

He is known for his work on collective behaviour in animals that aims to understand the fundamental patterns responsible for evolution of such behaviour in taxa as diverse as insects, fish and primates. In recognition of his work, he has received several awards including the 374: 359: 364: 384: 233: 369: 294: 271: 379: 113: 354: 109: 100:
