Field Work
Welcome to the Harris Lab at The University of Alabama! Our research is involved with understanding phylogenetic and biogeographic components of biological diversity, focusing on freshwater fishes. In order to address various questions, we use an array of tools, including traditional (e.g., morphological, ecological, life history, and behavioral characters) and molecular characters, historical and ecological biogeography, paleoecology, paleohydrology and population genetics. Integrating these conceptual areas falls within the context of the disciplines of phylogenetics, phylogeography, and conservation genetics. If you are interested in joining our lab, please contact Dr. Phil Harris.
