Katie Nickles is an Instructor in Biological Sciences at Wellesley College, where she teaches laboratory components for courses including Introduction to Organismal Biology, Environmental Horticulture, Human Biology, Marine Biology, and Comparative Anatomy and Physiology of Vertebrates. She holds a B.S. and M.S. from the University of Rhode Island.
Her research focuses on organismal biology, marine biology, and underwater research. Specifically, she studies the development of lateral line systems in coral reef fishes, coral restoration, marine disease ecology, and environmental impact assessments. Her work integrates field research with scientific diving across diverse marine ecosystems.
Analysis of her recent publications reveals strong thematic focus on coral reef ecology, sensory biology in fishes, and restoration techniques. Major trends include investigations into sensory organ development, coral disease management, behavioral ecology of reef species, and comparative assessment of restoration methodologies.
