Phylogeography of rocky shore marine species.  MS thesis focused on amphi-Pacific phylogeography and speciation in the rocky shore snail Nucella lima.  Nicole now works as a science teacher at Timberland High School in Mount Pleasant, South Carolina. 

Population genetics and conservation of sharks.  Dissertation focused on the eastern Pacific population genetics of Sphyrna lewini, the scalloped hammerhead shark.  Currently a faculty member at College of Coastal Georgia. 

Genetic mapping and QTL analysis as tools to understand genetic load, inbreeding depression, and genetic causes of larval mortality of marine organisms.  Postdoc work in our lab included paternity analysis and population genomics of gooseneck barnacles using microsatellites and RADseq technology.  Louis is now a faculty member at Horn Point Laboratory, University of Maryland.

Evolution of mating systems in marine organisms.  In the Marko lab, Tammy was a postdoc that worked on the phylogeography of north Pacific marine organisms.  Tammy is currently a faculty member at Limestone College. 

Human genetics and genomics.  Worked as Howard Hughes funded undergrad in our lab on the population genetics of commercially harvested bay scallops in North Carolina.  After completing a PhD at Duke, she took a job with Illumina.    

Population structure and conservation genetics of terrestrial vertebrates.  Kelly had two stints as a lab technician and manager in our lab and is now working on his PhD at UCLA.
