Collaborators

Ryan Calsbeek

Ryan was my postdoctoral advisor at Dartmouth, and we continue to collaborate on studies of natural selection and sexual conflict in Anolis lizards. Although Ryan's research has recently shifted to focus on wood frogs, he's still probably the best lizard nooser that I know.

Todd Castoe

Todd is an expert in reptile genomics, and his group's expertise has been essential to our studies of sex-biased and hormone-induced patterns of gene expression in Anolis and Sceloporus.

Rebecca Fuller

For the past few years, Becky has been running a summer workshop on teaching evolution through her CAREER award from the National Science Foundation. She's now helping us develop ideas and lessons for our own Evolution Education program, and we're jointly interested in finding ways to align university research with Next Generation Science Standards for teaching.

Henry John-Alder

Henry was my PhD advisor at Rutgers, and we continue to collaborate on comparative studies of growth regulation by testosterone in Sceloporus lizards. Our current project involves comparative transcriptomics in fence and spiny lizards, in collaboration with Christian Cox and Todd Castoe.

Joel McGlothlin

Joel is our go-to collaborator for expertise in quantitative genetics, and we're working together on several projects exploring the evolution and development of between-sex genetic correlations and genetic (co)variance matrices. He's also a Reds fan, but we try not to hold that against him.

Daniel Warner

In addition to his expertise with other lizard and turtle species, Dan has been studying brown anoles in Florida since 2011. Several of his study islands now serve as the field sites for our collaboration exploring the quantitative genetics of intralocus sexual conflict in the wild.

Martin Wu

Martin is an expert in microbial genomics and, along with Tiantian Ren, he is working with us to explore species differences in the microbiomes of anoles from Puerto Rico and the Bahamas.
