Dr. Paul Marino
Associate Professor | Biology
My research is in plant ecology and  plant-insect interactions. This work has ranged from sustainable agriculture to, more recently, specialized interactions among fly dispersed boreal mosses (Family Splachnaceae).
T: (709) 864-4339 | E: pmarino@mun.ca | O: CSF2224 |


Dr. Dawn Marshall
Associate Professor | Biology
I do research in evolutionary genetics, with a focus on population genetics of Newfoundland and Labrador mammals. I also have interests in evolution and natural selection at the molecular level.
T: (709) 864-7677 | E: dawnm@mun.ca | O: CSF2225 |


Dr. Ted Miller
Professor | Biology
I study evolutionary aspects of animal behaviour (mainly acoustic communication) and morphology. My research on sound communication is mainly on shorebirds (geographic variation; systematics), and in morphology ranges from investigations of vocal-tract anatomy in non-passerine birds to character variation and size-scaling of hard structures in Carnivora.

Dr. Matthew Rise
Department Head | Biology
Research Interests: Research uses functional genomic tools and techniques to study the genes and molecular pathways involved in aquatic animal growth, development, and responses to pathogens and environmental stressors (e.g. pollutants, temperature stress).
T: (709)-864-4381 | E: mrise@mun.ca | O: C2211c |
Dr. Julissa Roncal
Associate Professor | Biology
I study botany with a focus on systematics and biogeography of tropical plants. I also have interests in conservation genomics and phylogenetic community ecology applied to understand plant community assembly in boreal and tropical forests.

Dr. Paul Snelgrove
Professor | Biology | Ocean Science
I do research in marine biology with a focus on biodiversity and conservation of seafloor habitats in coastal and deep-sea ecosystems.

T: (709) 864-3440 | E: psnelgro@mun.ca | O: AX3002 |


Dr. Brian Staveley
Professor | Biology
My research is in molecular cell biology and developmental genetics with a focus on aging, enhanced homeostasis, and increased lifespan and "health-span" by investigation of Drosophila (fruit fly) as a model organism. My work includes modelling diseases of the aged, such as ALS and Parkinson Disease, and evaluation of nutraceutical supplements.
T: (709) 864-4317 | E: bestave@mun.ca | O: CSF4341 |


Dr. Kapil Tahlan
Professor | Biology

Dr. Hélène Volkoff
Professor | Biology | Biochemistry
I do research in fish endocrinology with a focus on the regulation of food intake and reproduction. My work ranges from in vivo treatments and behavioural observations to molecular biology.
T: (709) 864-2140 | E: hvolkoff@mun.ca | O: CSF4339 |
Dr. Jeanette Wheeler
Assistant Professor | Biology
I do research in marine ecology with a focus on biophysical interactions occurring in ocean bacteria, phytoplankton, zooplankton, and larvae.
