As a Ph.D. student, he realized that his true passion lies in entomology education, and thus he sought out a teaching-focused faculty position upon graduation. He is now a lecturer (100% teaching faculty) in the Entomology & Nematology Department at the University of Florida, where he teaches a wide variety of courses, including Introductory Entomology, Spider Biology, Social Insects, and Insect Behavior. Another big component of his teaching program are course-based undergraduate research experiences (CUREs), which bridge the gap between the classroom and laboratory by engaging students in authentic entomology research as part of their coursework. He is also very interested in international education and spends his summers teaching an entomology study abroad course in Florence, Italy. Dr. Laramy Enders (@Purdue University) Dr. Enders is an applied evolutionary biologist that studies plant-insect-microbe interactions in agroecosystems. She received her PhD from the University of California - Riverside, where she studied stress biology and population genetics in Drosophila. She then went on to work as a postdoctoral researcher at the University Nebraska -Lincoln and Kansas State University where she focused on uncovering the molecular mechanisms responsible for virulence of aphid pests in soybean and wheat. In 2017 she joined Purdue University's Entomology Department where she has expanded her research interests to include both plant and insect microbiomes. In addition to research, she currently teaches undergraduate level Insect Physiology & Biochemistry and a graduate level Science Writing course at Purdue. Dr. Ashleigh Faris (Assistant Professor @Texas A&M University) Ashleigh Faris, Ph.D. is an instructional assistant professor in the Texas A&M University Department of Entomology (ENTO) and Forensic and Investigative Sciences (FIVS) Program. Dr. Faris teaches various undergraduate and first year experience courses including forensic entomology, medical entomology, insects in human society, and forensic genetics. She is also the department coordinator for ENTO and FIVS undergraduate internships and research, advises undergraduate led research, and serves on graduate student committees. Dr. Faris's scholarship of teaching and learning interests are in diversity and inclusion for equitable undergraduate education, the interdisciplinary role of insects outside of entomology-based education, and course development/redesign for improving undergraduate retention. Dr. Carly Tribull (Assistant Professor @Farmingdale State College) Dr. Carly Tribull is currently an assistant professor in the Biology Department at Farmingdale State College (SUNY). They began their studies in entomology as an undergraduate at the University of California, Berkeley, and continued studying parasitoid wasp systematics at the Richard Gilder Graduate School at the American Museum of Natural History. As a professor at a primarily teaching-focused institution, their goal is to provide meaningful undergraduate research experiences and mentorship in field entomology and molecular systematics. Their other great passion is comics, specifically the incorporation of science communication and education comics into the college classroom; their work on a free, online textbook for nonmajor biology students can be found at www.biologycomics.com.
