PI: Priscilla Erickson

Priscilla began her studies in biology at Kenyon College in Ohio, where she studied the effect of stress on life history traits in birds. She did her PhD work in Craig Miller's lab at UC Berkeley, studying the genetic and developmental basis of skeletal evolution in threespine stickleback fish. For her postdoc, she studied the evolution of fruit flies over seasonal timescales with Alan Bergland at the University of Virginia. After a brief stint as a visiting faculty member, she joined the Biology department at the University of Richmond full time in Fall 2021. Outside of work, Priscilla loves swimming, hiking, rock climbing, working on her native plant gardens, and hanging out with her dog, Mindy (who also enjoys helping out with fly maintenance).
