Amy Erickson is an Associate Professor in the Department of Biological Sciences at Louisiana State University Shreveport (LSUS), where she has been teaching and mentoring students since 2007. Her academic focus spans marine biology, chemical ecology, and aquatic ecosystems.
- PhD, Biology (University of South Florida, 2003)
- MS, General Experimental Psychology (Florida State University)
- BS, Biology (Georgetown University)
Her research explores herbivory defense mechanisms in marine and mangrove ecosystems, with publications analyzing chemical defenses in algae and cyanobacteria, crab herbivory patterns in mangroves, and ecological interactions in aquatic environments. She integrates biostatistics and chemical ecology into her studies.
Key trends in her publications include investigations into trophic interactions, plant-herbivore dynamics, and the role of secondary metabolites in ecological resistance. Her work emphasizes experimental approaches to understanding marine and coastal biodiversity.
