Research Interest:
Entomology and natural history. I am director of the James Woodworth Prairie, in Glenview IL, and my research is very entomology (and maybe soon, ichthyology) focused, and natural history centered. Most of the opportunities I can provide are during the summer, but I would be happy to have students learn basic ecosystems management techniques, basic entomology, and conduct natural history observations. Minimum time commitment in hours per week: 2 Qualifications of a Student:
MUST have an interest in natural history that goes beyond a desire to accumulate an experience for a resume. For example, if the student's career path is focused on pre-health professions, an interest in medical entomology, or the entomology of decomposition related to pathology, is desired. A student must genuinely enjoy diptera, for example, aesthetically and as a research experience. Brief Summary of what is expected from the student:
A student should be able to learn to identify plants, animals, and other organisms, and to recognize the community interactions they drive, in a natural or human-impacted environment.
NOTE: This researcher is currently not accepting applications for the Undergraduate Research Experience program.
