Heather Hines
Associate Professor of Biology and Entomology
Applies genomic, transcriptomic, phylogenomic, and bioinformatic approaches to study the evolution and genetics of diverse traits in bees and wasps. This includes study of mimetic color diversification, plant gall induction, novel morphologies, speciation, and social evolution.
Margarita Lopez-Uribe
Associate Professor of Entomology
How environmental change and human management shape bee health and long-term persistence of their populations in agricultural areas.
Center for Infectious Disease Dynamics
Tracy Langkilde
Professor of Biology; Dean of the Eberly College of Science
The interface of ecology and evolution to understand how an organism's traits are matched to its environment and responds to novel selective pressures imposed by global environmental change, and the consequences of this adaptation.
Center for Infectious Disease Dynamics
Keith Cheng
