Christine Josenhans
Christine Josenhans is Professor for Microbiology and Medical Microbiology at Max von Pettenkofer Institute of Ludwig Maximilians University Munich and an infectious disease specialist. Until 2017, she was Associate Professor at Hannover Medical School, Germany, also in the field of infection research and molecular and cellular microbiology. Her research foci are on infectious disease agents in general, with specialization in microbiology, biochemistry, immunology, and host-pathogen interactions. She performed her Post-doctoral studies on Yersinia host-pathogen interactions, more specifically on their type III secretion system pore proteins. Current research foci are in persistent bacterial and viral infections, host-pathogen crosstalk and immune interference, as well as in the causal link between infections and cancer.
She is on the board of several undergraduate and graduate teaching programs.
Bishoy Kamel
I am currently a scientist at the Joint Genome Institute at Lawrence Berkeley National Laboratory. Working on a diversity of topics, including evolution, genomics, metabolic modeling, host-parasite interactions, and biosurveillance.
Clint D Kelly
Canada Research Chair in Behavioural Ecology. Our lab uses an empirical approach to examine a broad set of topics in behavioral and evolutionary ecology, with particular emphasis on the evolution and maintenance of mating systems and strategies, the trade-offs between reproduction and immunity, the evolution of sexual dimorphism and sperm competition.
We test hypotheses in the lab and field using North American gryllid field crickets and the weta of New Zealand as model organisms. In addition to our empirical work, we have a strong interest in reviewing and synthesizing the primary literature using meta-analysis, commenting on statistical issues and analyzing scientific practices.
Clement Kent
Dr. Clement Kent is a an Adjunct Professor at York University, Toronto, Canada. He has prior background math and computing; but since 2005 his research interests have focused on behavioral genetics and genomics, for both fruit flies and social insects, primarily honeybees, as well as conservation of pollinators.
Seung-Chul Kim
The Curator of the Ha Eun Herbarium (SKK) and Professor of Biological Sciences, Sungkyunkwan University, Korea. Program Director for the Korean Society of Plant Taxonomists.
Elizabeth G King
Assistant Professor of Biological Sciences, University of Missouri. The goal of our research is to explain the diversity of life history strategies among organisms. We primarily, though not exclusively, use insect model systems for our research.
Fabien Knoll
Fabien Knoll is a Senior Research Fellow at the National Museum of Natural Sciences in Madrid, Spain. His research interests focus on the palaeobiology and evolution of archosaurs.
Daisuke Koyabu
Dai Koyabu is an Associate Professor of Anatomy at the City University of Hong Kong. He was educated at Kyoto University, University of California at Berkeley, and University of Tokyo, and had postdoctoral training at University of Zurich. His research focuses on the anatomy, evolution and development of the mammalian cranium. Editorial Board of Mammalian Biology, Mammal Study, and Morphomuseum. Recommender for PCI Paleontology. Executive Committee Member of the International Society of Vertebrate Morphology (ISVM).
Brian Kraatz
Brian received a B.A. in Geology from Gustavus Adolphus College in 1996. He completed an M.S. in Geology & Geophysics from the University of Wyoming in 2001, and a Ph.D in Integrative Biology from the University of California, Berkeley in 2007. He completed a postdoctoral fellowship in Paleontology at the American Museum of Natural History, where he remains affiliated as a Research Associate. Since 2009 he has been an Assistant then Associate Professor of Anatomy at Western University of Health Sciences.
American Museum of Natural History Postdoctoral Fellowship, 2007

Theerapong Krajaejun
Professor of Clinical Pathology, Department of Pathology, Faculty of Medicine, Ramathibodi Hospital, Mahidol University, Bangkok, Thailand.
Robin SS Kramer
I am currently a senior lecturer at the University of Lincoln, UK. My work focusses on face recognition, specifically how we become familiar with faces despite (or because of) within-person variability in facial appearance.
Daniel J. G. Lahr
I am interested in an array of questions regarding protistan evolution and diversity. I have worked in protistology since my 1st undergraduate year, then did a masters in taxonomy of testate amoebae and a PhD in evolutionary biology, focusing on amoebozoans. My research focuses on constructing phylogenetic trees to answer broad questions in the evolutionary biology of microbes.
