Specific Interests
Generally, my research interests focus on contaminants and how they affect various aspects of reptiles and amphibians, such as physiology or spatial ecology. In the past, I investigated the effects of maternally transferred mercury on neonate snakes. My current research interests lie in the effects of fungicides to amphibian communities in and around agricultural areas.
