My primary research interests are invertebrate phylogeny and phylogeography. I am primarily interested in the extremes of the molluscan and annelidan radiations.

Zoology

I'm an ecologist interested in understanding the drivers of spatial behavioral processes such as movement and habitat selection.

Zoology

The overarching goal of my research is to develop a conceptual framework for understanding the interplay between spatial, genetic, ecological, and evolutionary processes.

Dr. Eichholz is a waterfowl/wetland ecologist in the Cooperative Wildlife Research Laboratory and Assistant Professor in the Zoology Program, Southern Illinois University.

Zoology

Many investigators have assumed that the bioenergetics of ectotherms respond similarly to conditions along environmental gradients.

Zoology

I am interested in the spatial and temporal dynamics of genes in natural populations.

Zoology

My research interest focuses on the historical relationships among nematodes and their mammalian hosts across the neotropics.

Zoology

My areas of research interest include evaluating the effects of chemical mixtures, developing a basic understanding of the chemical and biological factors affecting toxicity, bioavailability and bioaccumulation, remediation of contaminated sites and evaluating the effectiveness of Best Management Practices in reducing pesticide and nutrient loadings into aquatic systems.

Zoology

My research examines the causes and consequences of patterns in freshwater nutrient availability.
