Evolution and Development of Direct-developing Frogs

Although the application date for this project is past, the project is still ongoing. You may still wish to contact this professor about other ways of getting involved with this work. Please attend an info session or contact email for more information.

The main purpose of this research is to understand the evolutionary history of direct-developing frogs in the genus Eleutherodactylus in Texas and Mexico using morphology, genetics, and acoustic analysis of male advertisement calls. For a recent publication from my lab, please see https://peerj.com/articles/14985/.
