The Department of Ecology and Evolution at Stony Brook was founded in 1969 and was one of the first departments of its kind in the world. The department and graduate program has an international reputation in the fields of evolutionary biology and ecology. Particular areas of strength in our graduate program include population genetics, conservation ecology, molecular evolution and phylogenetics, evolutionary genomics, species interactions, invasion ecology, marine and freshwater ecology, and primate evolution and behavior.The faculty includes two members of the National Academy of Sciences, four members of the American Academy of Arts and Sciences, five past presidents of the Society for the Study of Evolution and the American Society of Naturalists, past president of the American Malacological Society, and past president of the American Institute of Biological Sciences. Faculty members are active in a variety of major professional societies and have served as Editors, Associate Editors and members of editorial boards of major scientific journals.

E & E 10-YEAR STRATEGIC PLAN



Samantha Garvey, a senior at Brentwood High School, has been named an Intel semi-finalist. She is a student of E&E Ph.D. student and Brentwood H.S. research teacher Rebecca Grella, and did her research under the supervision of Professor Dianna Padilla. Samantha has been in the national news because in addition to being recognized for her scientific research, she is from a school district with a high proportion of families below the poverty level. Samantha and her family are currently homeless. Samantha Garvey and Rebecca Grella have been invited to attend the State of the Union Address in Washington, D.C.
(On NY Times - 01/24/2012)

Congratulations to Samantha, Dr. Padilla, and Rebecca Grella, and best wishes to Samantha and her family.
