Sieara Claytor, PhD student in Wildlife Ecology & Conservation
Sieara has a MS from California State University in LA.
My general research interests are climate change, wildlife diseases, and conservation. I use species distribution models and phylogeography to understand the affects of climate change on amphibian pathogens, particularly chytrid fungus and ranavirus.

Lizzie Troyer, MS student in Interdisciplinary Ecology
Lizzie has a BA from Cornell University.
My research is on the population ecology of raccoons and opossums at the Ordway-Swisher Biological Station in Florida. I'm investigating factors that influence survival, recruitment, and population growth rates of these species by applying population models to capture-mark-recapture data.

Juliana Bedoya, MS student in Interdisciplinary Ecology
Juliana has a BS in Biology from Universidad del Valle, Cali Colombia.
I am interested in the conservation of tropical vertebrates at different scales and community ecology. My current research is focused on the effect of climate change on endemic reptiles. I will use different modeling approaches (community vs. individual-based models) and different climatic scenarios to predict species turnover and the change in species richness of endemic reptiles from Mexico.

Bradley Udell, Undergraduate - University Scholars Program
Brad is currently writing a University Scholars Program thesis on an economic and ecological analysis of aquaponic systems as an alternative to corn farming in the midwest as a climate change adaptation and mitigation strategy.
