Bio

Marieken took her first college class in Biology in 1997 and has never not been involved in Biology since. Her primary focus in college and graduate school was the evolution of plant mating systems, sexual selection in plants and changes in gender allocation over the lifetime of plants and animals. Since that time, Marieken has taught more than 20 different courses in Biology, from Introductory Biology to Cell Biology, to Physiology and beyond. She is passionate about continually updating the curriculum of her courses to meet the current challenges and opportunities for learning.
