Rachel Collin
In the Collin Lab we work to understand how environmental conditions, their natural variation and environmental change from the climate emergency shape marine ecosystems and biodiversity. Our current work focuses on three areas (1) Documenting the biodiversity of tropical marine invertebrates, (...
Scientist
Owen McMillan
I am broadly interested in the genetics of adaptation and speciation. How do new species form? How does adaptive variation arise and spread? How is morphological variation created through development and modified by natural selection? Is evolution predictable?
The focus of my lab’s...

Rachel Page
In our lab, we investigate sensory and cognitive mechanisms underlying animal behavior. Animals use a wide array of cues and signals to glean information about their environment. An animal’s sensory and perceptual systems filter incoming stimuli and define an animal’s Umwelt, or the...

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...
More trees, more water
Scientists question hydrological model for Panama Canal Watershed
January 17, 2014
A new model suggests reforestation could be detrimental to water resources in the Panama Canal. Smithsonian scientists warn of flawed methodology and emphasize case for long-term monitoring.
Sneaky GMO pollen
GMO soybean pollenmay threaten Mexicanhoney exports
February 14, 2014
Researchers find genetically modified pollen from soybeans in otherwise GMO-free Mexican honey.
Carbon Stranglers
Lianas can suppress tree growth in young tropical forests for decades
February 24, 2017
Tropical reforestation projects need take into consideration “liana infestation” to maximize carbon sequestration, says the study’s lead author.
Tree Biodiveristy Threatened
Tropical rainforests in danger of losing tree diversity
December 13, 2013
Short-lived tropical forests only sustain about half of the tree biodiversity of mature forests, according to a new study in the Panama Canal Watershed.
Native Species Reforestation
Smithsonian releases guide to restoring tropical forests
October 28, 2016
Drawing on 30-plus years of research in the Panama Canal Watershed, Smithsonian scientist Jefferson Hall releases an illustrated publication that will improve reforestation and help successfully restore forests with 64 species of Neotropical trees.
