Lenny Gannes, Assistant
Professor of Biology, teaches courses in animal migration, ecology, organismal
biology, and ecology of home. He is intrigued by the way animals interact with
their environment and how the environment shapes organisms, and incorporates
concepts of conservation biology, ecology, physiology, and evolution into his courses.
He has researched the physiology and ecology of migrating birds in Israel, feeding
ecology of hummingbirds and mockingbirds in Chile, nesting physiology of warblers
in Arizona, and the potential impacts of climate change on migrating birds in
the western United States. Ph.D. and M.A., Princeton University; B.S. University
of California at Davis
