Ryan Walter, Principal Investigator
Our lab uses molecular genetic and genomic tools in non-model organisms to address basic and applied questions in ecology and evolutionary biology. I am interested in organisms exhibiting varying dispersive life history strategies, particularly marine and freshwater fishes.
