Hi, I'm Kurt​.

​

I am a current graduate student at San Francisco State University with a diverse range of research interests. My passion for learning has led to my involvement in several aspects of biology, including behavioral ecology, landscape genetics, and amphibian disease dynamics.

Taricha Disease Trial

How do Pacific Newts respond to a deadly amphibian disease?

Los Vaqueros Reservoir

What happens when a large reservoir is constructed in a habitat of endangered species?

Amphibian Disease in Africa

When did a major amphibian disease emerge in Africa?

Mojave Desert Diversity
