People

	Michael (Michi) Tobler Michi graduated with a Ph. D. from the University of Zürich in 2008 and spent over two years as a postdoctoral researcher at Texas A&M University. He is interested in a wide range of questions including the evolution and maintenance of sex, genital evolution and sexual conflict in livebearing fishes, as well as geographic variation and systematics of livebearing fishes and cichlids in Central America. His current research predominantly focuses on the interplay of adaptation and speciation in extremophile fishes. Michi's CV Email: This e-mail address is being protected from spambots.

	Reid Morehouse (Ph.D. student) Reid received his Master's degree in Zoology from Oklahoma State University. He is interested in a wide range of topics within the aquatic world. Topics include invasive species, non-game fishes, macro-invertebrates, trophic interactions, ecology, and evolution. His current research focuses on the ecology and evolution of North American crayfish with emphasis on testing relationships between morphology and ecology to understand adaptive radiation of crayfish.

	Maura Palacios (Ph.D. student at Texas A&M University, co-advised Gary Voelker) Maura received her Master's degree in Biology from California State University, Los Angeles. She is interested in the taxonomy, molecular evolution, ecology, and conservation of freshwater fishes. Her current research focuses on elucidating the phylogenetic relationships of mollies in the genus Poecilia. She is also working on the population genetics of the tropical gar, Atractosteus tropicus, throughout its distribution from southern Mexico to Costa Rica.

Alumni
	Kristin Scharnweber Kristin was a Master's student co-advised with Martin Plath. She was visiting from the University of Potsdam and worked on trophic niche differentiation in sympatric asexual and sexual fish species. She is currently a Ph.D. student at the Leibniz Institute of Freshwater Ecology and Inland Fisheries (IGB) studying lake ecology.
	Isabelle Gemmer Isabelle was a visiting intern in our lab in summer 2011 and is currently a student at the University of Landau (Germany). Her internship in our lab was made possible by a RISE scholarship of the German Exchange Service. Isabelle was involved in various projects, including a study of geographic variation in fishes of the genus Heterandria.
