Kim took her written exams September 25-28 and her orals on October 9. She passed everything and is now a fully fledged PhD candidate! We celebrated with beers at a local brewery and we're all very proud of her.

Our primary goal is to understand the processes that shape evolutionary trajectories. We focus on the mechanisms of convergent evolution of behavioral and morphological traits. We link molecular, neural, and developmental mechanisms to their consequences for organismal phenotypes, and we investigate the neural and hormonal mechanisms of context- or experience-dependent changes in behavior.
