UNR Evol Doers

The Feldman Lab is part of a larger informal group of PIs and students that study the evolutionary biology, ecology, and conservation of terrestrial vertebrates at the University of Nevada, Reno--the legendary UNR Evol Doers.  Participating labs include:

Marjorie Matocq
   (NRES) University of Nevada, Reno

• Population and evolutionary genetics of mammals, including conservation biology

Jamie Voyles
   (Biology) University of Nevada, Reno

• Disease ecology and conservation biology of amphibians, reptiles, and mammals

Jenny Ouyang
   (Biology) University of Nevada, Reno

• Physiology, ecology, and life history evolution in birds with a focus on urban ecology

Jennifer Hoy
   (Biology) University of Nevada, Reno

• Neural, genetic, and physiological integration of behavior and vision in mammals

Jesse Krause
   (Biology) University of Nevada, Reno

• Environmental physiology of birds with a focus on endocrine control of behavior and life history

Mike Logan
   (Biology) University of Nevada, Reno

• Evolutionary biology of reptiles, especially the lability of ecophysiology and thermal biology in lizards

Julie Allen
   (Biology) University of Nevada, Reno

• Development of bioinformatic tools to address questions in ecology and evolution of coevolving taxa
