Julianna Mendez will be joining us in the fall of 2023. Julianna is coming from Gettysburg College in Pennsylvania, where she worked on red eyed tree frog acoustic and vibrational signaling. We are very fortunate and excited to have her join the lab!

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.
