CBFS Summer Courses:
Conservation Biology

Biography

My professional research interests involve identifying more effective approaches to implement on the ground conservation strategies to benefit species of conservation concern. Conservation strategies may include the use of spatial models to identify priority areas in need of protection, mitigation of poaching activity, evaluation of field techniques for conservation research, and evaluation of recovery efforts for threatened and endangered species. I love involving undergraduate students in my research through the Applied Conservation Lab. The Millersville Applied Conservation Lab is an interdisciplinary lab which consists mainly of undergraduate research projects being conducted by Millersville University biology students. The mission statement of the Lab is ‘The study and development of applied solutions to conservation problems through the efforts of undergraduate research'. The Director of the Applied Conservation Lab is Dr. Aaron Haines. The lab is currently located in 116 Caputo Hall at The Millersville University campus. Current equipment available to aid undergraduate students in developing solutions to conservation problems include: infrared remote cameras, small mammal traps, chemical soil testing kits, GPS units, wildlife telemetry equipment, centrifuge, drying oven and forensic testing kits.
