He received his interdisciplinary B.A. degree (Echols Scholar) from the University of Virginia and his Ph.D. in Biology at the University of Utah with Eric Charnov.\u00a0 Here is Werren’s CV<\/a>.<\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

\"\"Cordelia Forkpah\u00a0 (Technician): As well as managing the laboratory, Cordelia is involved in several projects. Currently she is concentrating on the genetic basis of learning differences among Nasonia species.<\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

Shaan Bhambra (Undergraduate Researcher):\u00a0 Shaan is investigating genetic basis of differences in head shape and body color among\u00a0Nasonia<\/b>\u00a0species.<\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

\"\"Sammy Cheng (Undergraduate Research):\u00a0 Sammy is investigating the evolution of lateral gene transfers from bacteria to insects.<\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

\"\"Hannah Cook (Undergraduate Researcher): Hannah is studying the diversity of Nasonia species, including how their frequencies have changed over time and whether one species has gone extinct in nature.<\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

\"\"Austin Varela (Undergraduate Researcher): Austin is investigating evolutionary rate correlations (ERCs) among nuclear and mitochondrial genes, and more broadly ERCs as a tool for investigating protein interactions and networks.\u00a0 \u00a0Austin is a computation biology major.<\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

\"\"Miranda Zammarelli (Undergraduate Researcher): Miranda is studying the genetics of species differences in learning and memory.<\/p>\n
