Ecology and Evolutionary Biology

Tina Lasisi

I began my academic journey studying Archaeology and Anthropology at the University of Cambridge, where I developed an early interest in human biological variation. I continued this work during my Ph.D. in Biological Anthropology at Penn State University, focusing on developing quantitative, reproducible methods for studying hair morphology and pigmentation. During my postdoctoral training in ...

Ben Dantzer

I have studied the behavior and physiology of wild animals in the Canadian Yukon, the Kalahari desert, and the wilds of southwestern Ohio or northern Michigan. I enjoy taking a longitudinal approach to my scientific questions where we study individual animals over long periods of time. This allows us to understand how animals respond to ...

Gideon Bradburd

I am an evolutionary biologist interested in understanding the causes and consequences of genetic variation across time and space. One of the fundamental goals of evolutionary biology is to quantify patterns of genetic diversity within and between populations to enable the study of the processes that shape them. However, the development of key statistical methods ...

Jacob Allgeier

My goal as an ecologist is to apply ecological theory to help solve real-world conservation issues. Specifically, I seek to identify the mechanisms by which behavioral, population, and community dynamics mediate nutrient and energy pathways. The objective is to improve our ability to predict ecological outcomes, and enhance conservation efficacy such as the sustainability of ...

Kai Zhu

Kai Zhu is interested in global change biology, ecological modeling, and environmental data science, where he enjoys integrating ecological theory with advanced tools in statistics and computer science. His current research focuses on plant and soil responses to environmental change in the coupled natural and human systems, spanning from meter-scale experiments to global-scale analyses. Recent ...

Luis Zaman

Much of our work focuses on host-parasite coevolution both computationally using populations of self-replicating computer programs (sort of like computer viruses), and experimentally in the lab with bacteria and their viruses (bacteriophage). But that’s not all! We’re deeply interdisciplinary, and broadly interested in ecology and evolution. While I often approach questions from an experimentalist’s perspective, ...

Dan Rabosky

The Rabosky lab seeks to understand how and why life on Earth became so diverse. We focus primarily on large-scale patterns of species diversification (speciation and extinction) and on the tempo and mode of phenotypic evolution, to better understand what regulates the “amount” of biodiversity through Deep Time. To this end, we develop theoretical frameworks ...

Nate Sanders

My research interests are broad, but generally center on the causes and consequences of biodiversity loss at local, regional, and global scales with an explicit focus on global change drivers. Our work has been published in Science, Nature, Science Advances, Global Change Biology, PNAS, AREES, TREE, and Ecology Letters among other journals. We are especially ...

Alison Davis Rabosky

Our research group studies how and why an organism’s traits (“phenotypes”) evolve in natural populations. Explaining the mechanisms that generate and regulate patterns of phenotypic diversity is a major goal of evolutionary biology: why do we see rapid shifts to strikingly new and distinct character states, and how stable are these evolutionary transitions across space ...
