Student Research

All Allegheny students must complete a Senior Project, which in the Biology Department is a significant body of original independent research. Senior Project research students working under my direction have focused on a variety of problems in animal behavior, ecology, and evolutionary biology, using a wide diversity of animal taxa, including insects, fish, amphibians, reptiles, birds, and mammals. Several students have published the results of their Senior Project research in national or international journals.
