Ecology and evolution: from molecules to minds

We use ecological and evolutionary principles and data for understanding why populations are the way they are, how populations change over time, and what happens in populations. Our current populations of interest are the denizens of freshwater springs in southwestern North America, prairie dogs living in grassland habitats of Colorado, a couple of species of critically endangered freshwater fishes (Greenback cutthroat trout and Ash Meadows pupfish), and students inhabiting college science courses.
