Bio
Clark studies animal behavior from an evolutionary perspective with a focus on the behavior and ecology of reptiles and amphibians. He uses molecular ecology techniques to understand population genetic structure and other population level processes, and how these processes are affected by the behavior of humans. He also studies the conservation of animals, and the effects of habitat fragmentation on animal populations.
