Ecology
Ph. D., University of Iowa, 1969
Plant Systematics
Ph.D., University of Minnesota, 1970
Arachnids
Dr. deNoyelles' interests include the use of in situ experimental methods in aquatic ecosystems and the effects of stress on aquatic ecosystems.
Ph.D., University of Michigan, 1956
Systematics, Herpetology
Dr. Fautin is an invertebrate zoologist specializing in sea anemones and in symbiosis.
Ph.D., Kansas State University, 1985
Plant Systematics
Dr. Greenfield's research interest is animal communication and sexual selection.
Ph.D. University of Wisconsin, 1978
Entomology
Professor Haufler's research focuses on the evolutionary history, population genetics, and speciation of ferns. He is particularly interested in the life cycle dynamics of these “seed free” plants as well as the role of polyploidy and gene silencing in the genetics of the lineages.
Dr. Jander's research focuses on experimental analysis of behavioral mechanisms and reconstruction of behavioral macro-evolution.
Ph.D., University of Kansas, 1991
Ecology, Ethnobotany
Ph.D. Westfälische Wilhelms-Universität, Münster, Germany, 1998
Paleobotany
Dr. Krishtalka's interests include science policy and administration, biodiversity informatics, and the paleobiology of mammals.
Dr. Martin studies the biochemical, physiological, anatomical, and morphological responses of plants to stressful environments.
Dr. Martinko's interests include ecosystem ecology and management, landscape analysis and characterization, and remote sensing of natural and biological resources, integrated reservoir mapping and assessment, water quality analysis, ecosystems research, landscape ecology and insect community ecology.
Ph.D. in Anthropology, University of Kansas
My research focuses on the use of molecular genetic methods to address long-standing questions in prehistory.
Ph.D., Cornell University, 2007
Ph.D., Utah State University, 1972
Quantitative Ecology, Population Dynamics
Dr. Taylor studies permineralized fossil plants and their paleoenvironments from the late Paleozoic and early Mesozoic of Antarctica
Dr. Taylor directs Monarch Watch and conducts research on a variety of topics related to the evolution and ecological implications of life history traits in insects and plants.
Dr. Timm studies the life history, ecology and conservation biology of mammals of the New World tropics.
Ph.D. University of Kansas, 1992
Animal Behavior and visual BASIC programming
Ph.D. University of Minnesota, 1979
Evolution of skeletal diversity and morphology in modern and fossil amphibians
The evolution of Drosophila immunity
Dr. Ward is interested in understanding how global change factors influence the physiology, population structure, and evolution of plants.
Ph.D., City University of New York, 1976
Systematics and Ichthyology
