I am interested in understanding the ways in which gene expression in eukaryotes can be regulated post-transcriptionally. There are many essential processing steps which eukaryotic mRNA must undergo ...
Tropical biodiversity: What are the biotic and abiotic environmental factors important to the evolution and maintenance of biodiversity in the most species-rich and endangered ecosystem in the world?
Serratia marcescens is a ubiquitous bacterium that is also an opportunistic pathogen, found in nosocomial infections, especially in immunocompromised patients and patients with indwelling catheters.

After terminating an early undergraduate venture toward a musical career, I resettled into zoology, spending the next eight years in graduate school, interrupted only by a two year period with the ...
I study physiological plant ecology, focusing on (1) herbivore-plant-microbe interactions, (2) physiological and growth responses to herbivory and (3) adaptation to, or effects of, environmental ...
Winder holds a bachelor’s degree in biology from the University of North Carolina, Asheville, and a master\’s in botany from the University of Tennessee ...
Humston teaches Introduction to Environmental Studies, Aquatic Ecology and Ecological Modeling, among other courses. He has researched fisheries management, fish ecology and dispersal/movement ...
My current interests focus on using modern molecular methods to collect data useful in answering questions in the areas of population genetics and evolutionary biology. Recent projects include the ...
I am broadly interested in how diversity at the molecular level translates into diversity at the organismal level. My research combines tools from molecular biology, phylogenetics, and natural history ...
Applies methods of computational modeling to study a wide range of biological systems. Some recent projects include neural control of breathing, pregnancy initiation in rats, and daily circadian cycle ...
Maternal use of tobacco has been shown to have adverse effects on the developing fetus. Evidence has linked tobacco use to sudden infant death syndrome (SIDS), hyperactivity, low birth weight, ...
