Welcome New Faculty (2009-2010)

The Biology Department would like to welcome three dynamic new faculty to Trinity. I realize this should have been posted last year (that's when the pictures were taken). Regardless - it is special honor to welcome the following three faculty to our department.














Dr. Michele Johnson is studying lizard behavioral evolution. She teaches in our Integrative Biology I sequence and developed an upper level Evolution course. Her research group is vigorously working in the field and laboratory addressing interesting questions with lizards using both behavioral and physiological approaches. Please check out her website for the latest news!
