Department of Ecology & Evolutionary Biology
Welcome to the Walters Lab
Our lab is based in the Ecology and Evolutionary Biology (EEB) department at the University of Kansas (KU). Our research combines genomic approaches with organismal biology to investigate evolutionary processes at the molecular level. Mostly we work with butterflies and moths on questions related to sex chromosome evolution and reproductive traits, but there are many other interesting questions and critters that would be welcome in our lab.
KU has an excellent and broadly scoped biology research community. Research in EEB ranges from population genetics to ecosystem ecology. Beyond EEB, our lab maintains strong connections to programs and researchers in the KU Center for Genomics, Molecular Biosciences, the Biodiversity Institute, and Monarch Watch. This network of expertise, resources, and collaborators creates a dynamic scientific and learning environment. Contact Jamie Walters to learn more about our research and opportunities to join our lab.
