Lab Members

Arianna Kuhn (she / hers)

I am interested in using field, lab and collections based experiences to understand how species have colonized novel habitats, and what external and intrinsic factors caused these organisms to originate, differentiate form other organisms, and persist through challenging conditions. Ultimately, in the lab weuse this information to model and predict how these species, communities and ecosystems will fare under future changes in climate and accross the landscape.

Favorite herp: Malagasy snakes have my heart, but I have always been fascinated by all snakes in the genus Bitis and the genus Atheris

Favorite non-herp: I love Salticids, and I can’t get enough of them!

Favorite thing to do besides looking for herps: cycling, hiking, backpacking, petting cute dogs
