Seminar Details:

As a Research Ecologist, Kellie Carim's research program draws upon her expertise in aquatic ecology and genetic applications to inform wilderness stewardship, and understand the benefits of wilderness to populations, ecosystems, and landscapes. 

As an Aquatic Research Biologist at the USFS National Genomics Center for Wildlife and Fish Conservation, Kellie's research focused on using genetics tools and information to inform management and conservation of freshwater fish. Research projects ranged from using environmental DNA to understand the presence and distribution various species in response to management activities (such as expansion of native species following habitat restoration or eradication of invasive species following removal efforts), to genetic assignment to identify source populations feeding active species invasions and phylogenetic analysis to understand taxonomy of understudied freshwater fish. In this position, Kellie worked with tribal, federal, state, and non-profit organizations and agencies. This collaborative approach promoted more comprehensive management efforts, helping diverse partners reach common management goals.
