What Do We Do?

  • We are interested in the comparative physiology of energy metabolism, osmotic regulation and the behavioral/physiological performance of animals.  Although most of our work has focused on insect model systems, our lab has previous experience with other model systems (amphibians and fish). 
  • STEM Education projects in our lab focus on Culturally Responsive Pedagogy (CRP) interventions in higher education, particularly focused on Latinx students.
