Research in the Price Lab focuses on the population ecology and conservation of semi-aquatic and aquatic animals. Most of our research centers on reptiles and amphibians, groups that are experiencing severe and unprecedented population declines.

Although we have broad interests, we often conduct research in the following areas: 1) examining the resistance and resilience of semi-aquatic reptile and amphibian populations to land-use and hydrologic change, and 2) assessing the influence of biophysical conditions on population vital rates, such as survivorship, recruitment, and temporal emigration, and behaviors (e.g., movement).

Additionally, we have strong interests in wildlife monitoring and management, freshwater biology, forest ecology, urban ecology, vertebrate natural history and landscape ecology.
