Assistant Teaching Professor
Meghann Humphries is an Assistant Teaching Professor of Biology at the University of Missouri-St. Louis, whose research interests focus on historical demography and population structure of West Indian birds and their malaria parasites. She utilizes genetic data to evaluate how interactions with malaria parasites could generate and maintain biological diversity, as well as contribute to the demographic cycling observed in host populations. She further employs morphometrics, vocal variation, and genomics to assess species limits and mitonuclear discordance of avian species.
