My lab conducts biogeographic research at the interface between ecology and evolution (see links at upper right). The overreaching theme is development and application of GIS-based methods for modeling species niches and distributions. Our current projects focus specifically on the small mammals of the northern Neotropics and Madagascar, the latter funded by a grant from the National Science Foundation (see Research).
