Visiting Faculty

Krista Fish (Block Visitor)
(Ph.D. Candidate, University of Colorado, Boulder)
Krista Fish is a biological anthropologist visiting from the University of Colorado-Boulder. Her interest in primate conservation began in 1999 while working at the Institute for Tropical Ecology and Conservation in Bocas del Toro, Panama. In 2003, Krista traveled to the Beza Mahafaly Special Reserve in southern Madagascar as part of The Beza Mahafaly Lemur Biology Project. The goal of this project is to explore how human-induced habitat change impacts the health of ring-tailed lemurs (Lemur catta). Krista's portion of the project examined how levels of fluctuating asymmetry-a possible indicator of developmental stress-varied between lemurs living in protected and human-disturbed areas.
