The scientific cohort of the Lemmon Lab

Emily Moriarty Lemmon
Department of Biological Science · Program in Neuroscience · Florida State University
Emily Moriarty Lemmon is Professor of Biological Science at Florida State University and Principal Investigator of the Lemmon Lab. Her research addresses how new species arise, combining behavioral ecology, evolutionary neuroscience, phylogenetics, population genetics, genomics, and ecology, with amphibians—especially North and South American frogs—as primary model systems. Current work in the lab examines reinforcement in contact zones, divergence of neural circuits that underlie mating behavior, the evolution of biofluorescence in frogs, and new genomic methods for population-level inference. She co-directs the FSU Center for Anchored Phylogenomics.
