The Garcia-Robledo lab studies the evolutionary ecology of plant-insect interactions, adaptation to novel environments (e.g., novel hosts, climate change), molecular biology, insect physiology, and demography.

The Jockusch Lab studies phenotypic evolution, particularly evolution of development and evolution of phenotypic plasticity in basal insects and salamanders.

Research in the Knutie lab spans both fundamental and applied ideas in disease ecology and evolution and studies the disease ecology of birds and amphibians, host-microbe interactions, ecotoxicology, invasive species biology, and behavioral ecology.

The Trumbo Lab studies insects, behavior, physiology, and carrion ecology.

The Wagner Lab studies systematics and phylogenetics, especially of the Lepidoptera, insect behavior and ecology, and invertebrate conservation.
