Celebrating International Bat Week, come learn about real vampires!
My colleagues and I bring field-collected leaf beetles (principally Cassidinae sensu lato) into the lab to more carefully observe and photograph feeding behavior and to archive the various immature stages for systematic morphological study. Insects are labeled and stored in ethanol at -20C and...
New fossil mammals in Caribbean Panama suggest ongoing marine interchange during the final stages of formation of the isthmus.
The first winner of the D. Ross Robertson Postdoctoral Fellowship for Field Studies on Neotropical Reef Fishes, Floriane Coulmance, tests a new, underwater camera system to study the connection between hamlet color patterns and genetics in fish from four countries around the Caribbean and Gulf of Mexico.
Avoiding predators at all costs.
Paleontologists discover possible DNA remains in fossil turtle that lived 6 million years ago in Panama, where continents collide
A 13-million-year-old saber-toothed marsupial skeleton discovered during paleontological explorations in Colombia is the most complete specimen recovered in the region
My lab’s research focuses on coastal marine ecology with an emphasis on host-parasite and consumer interactions, infectious diseases and biological invasions. I focus on how trophic interactions such as parasitism and predation alter populations, community structure and ecosystems. Parasites are...
In our lab, we conduct basic and applied research on (1) the mechanisms of coral reef resilience with the ultimate goal of finding ways to boost coral reef resilience; (2) the ecology of evolution of host-microbe interactions by leveraging the many sister species of fish, crustacean and mollusks...
