معرفی
Tyler Imfeld is an Assistant Professor in the Department of Biology at Regis University, specializing in evolutionary ecology and avian biodiversity. His work focuses on the diversification of songbirds in the Americas.
- Education: BS in Biology from Xavier University; PhD in Ecology, Evolution, and Behavior from the University of Minnesota.
Dr. Imfeld integrates molecular and morphological data from natural history collections to address evolutionary and taxonomic questions, with a strong emphasis on phylogenetics. His research spans biogeography, adaptive radiation, and morphological evolution in passerines.
Recent publications analyze macroevolutionary patterns in avian phylogenies, interhemispheric dispersal dynamics, and the role of ecological factors in speciation. Earlier work explored microbial interactions with nutrients and manganese cycling in environmental systems.
Dr. Imfeld actively incorporates natural history collections into his teaching and outreach programs, engaging learners of all ages in biodiversity studies.
