Education
B.A. with Honors in Biology and Distinction in All Subjects, Cornell University, Ithaca, NY, 2000Research Experience
2000 1 month visit, Max-Planck-Institute for Limnology, Ploen, Germany.1999-2000 NSF REU, continued independent study; applied molecular genetic techniques to population biological implications of life history traits of freshwater calanoid copepods.
1999 3 week visit, Max-Planck-Institute for Limnology, Ploen, Germany; learned molecular genetic techniques for application to copepod life histories.
1997-2000 Research assistant, Hairston Lab Group, Cornell University, Ithaca, NY; worked on various projects assessing the significance of long-term diapause in freshwater crustacean life histories.
Advanced Coursework in Population Biology
BIOES 461, Population and Evolutionary Ecology (instructors A. Kondrashov and D. Winkler); an introduction to the basic models of population biology. Developed a spatially explicit simulation model of dispersal in a stable environment (Matlab; slow but functional).BTRY 694, Mathematical Ecology (instructor N. Tisch); addressed techniques of "confronting models with data" by reading and discussing The Ecological Detective (Hilborn and Mangel, MPB 28); explored issues of space by reading and discussing Spatial Ecology (Tilman and Kareiva, MPB 30).
BIOGD 481, Population Genetics (instructor C. Aquadro); an introduction to the basic models of population genetics.
A complete listing of my coursework is available as well.
