In the her lab\, she investigates the impact of genetic and epigenetic variation on differences in fitness across envir onmental conditions. By using human and non-human primate models\, her wor k has direct applications to both human health research and conservation w ork.

Dr. Katie Grogan did her Ph.D. at Duke Un iversity followed by two 3 year postdoctoral fellowships\, one at Emory Un iversity and one at Pennsylvania State University. She started as an Assis tant Professor in the Departments of Anthropology and Biology at UC in Fal l 2020. In the her lab\, she investigates the impact of genetic and epigen etic variation on differences in fitness across environmental conditions. By using human and non-human primate models\, her work has direct applicat ions to both human health research and conservation work. Furthermore\, be cause she investigates questions relating to human variation and evolution as well as endangered species conservation and she works with and near ma rginalized peoples in areas of the world with long histories of colonial o ppression\, her work incorporates the consideration of ethical implication s of the work and involves the participant communities in the work through out the research process\, from study design through publication. Dr. Grog an is currently developing projects to examine how long-term environmental change has affected human hunter-gatherers in Southwest Uganda and how sh ort-term environmental variation affects wild thick-tailed galagos in Sout h Africa.
