Alex Shepack will be defending his dissertation on October 23rd. His dissertation, "Back from the Brink: Rebounding and Remnant Amphibian Populations in a Pathogen Enzootic Environment," examines the long-term impacts of the amphibian chytrid fungus (Batrachochytrium dendrobatidis) on Neotropical amphibians. Research in Peru yielded insights on how a single species can dominate the transmission of Bd in the environment, and potentially shape the rest of the amphibian community. Work conducted across Costa Rica helped characterize the demography and structure of a recovering population and examined the changes in genetic structure that arise from declines and recoveries. If you're interested in learning about these projects (and more!), please contact us. We'd love for you to join (via Zoom) on October 23rd at 2P.M. EST! You can attend on YouTube here: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=uejlRSNUejU
