New research group starting Fall 2024 at Iowa State University!
We study how environmental conditions shape life-history (like timing of sexual maturation, reproductive output, growth, and senescence), the physiological mechanisms that allow for these changes, and the consequences for populations as a whole. We use wild small mammals as model systems to understand how these types of changes in individual physiology can influence population processes.
