Lauren presented some of her sabbatical research at the Evolution Meeting in Montreal. This work was supported by an NSF Research Opportunity Award and uses individual-based simulation models in SLiM to explore the conditions that can result in continuous phenotypic variation in the absence of ecological selection. 

The Frost Summer Undergraduate Resaerch Program has started! Sadie, Kat, Daisy, and Sydney are working on a variety of projects in the lab this summer including work with Northern Red-legged frogs, California Newts, and Dunes Sagebrush Lizard. It's an awesome group!

Rachel, Greg, and Lauren got the chance to sample on San Miguel Island, the western-most island of California's Channel Islands! By helicopter!  

Super fun trip to Santa Cruz Island with this wonderful crew!
