I have taught several classes ranging from introductory biology to my specialty in animal behavior, both in the traditional classroom experience and in full-immersion field courses. I aim to provide students with a unique opportunity to explore critical thinking and application of scientific knowledge by exploiting the science of everyday life. Applying biological concepts in hands-on-research by using examples of animal and human behavior in the current literature captures the attention and interest of students. To engage students of different backgrounds and demographics, I encourage students to actively participate in lectures and guided discussions, and to design experiments using the scientific method in laboratory and field settings.

News: ROC Galapagos has launched! The first cohort of students are currently spending the semester in Galapagos. If you're interested in joining future programs, please contact Dr. Uy.
