I study the causes and consequences of variation in physiology and behavior, particularly as they relate to stress. My research interests focus on 1) how stress causes variation in physiology and behavior and 2) how individual variation can influence response to stress. Currently, I am interested in the intersection between stress and somatic maintenance, with a focus on immune readiness and telomere dynamics. I am developing my thesis related to the bidirectional links between telomere dynamics and behavioral plasticity, particularly as they relate to social and other environmental stressors.
I am currently a sixth-year biology Ph.D student at Indiana University in the Rosvall Lab. I received my Master's degree at the College of William & Mary, advised by Dr. Dan Cristol, after receiving my B.S. in Biology from Centre College. |
