Alongside the publications below, my works-in-progress include several genetics projects, a parasite analysis, bat migration studies, an examination of Dehnel’s phenomenon in preserved museum specimens of shrews (using CT scans and analog measurements), and climate change projections of habitat on endangered sky island boreal forests in the southeastern United States.
