Dr. Riechert is a UTK Distinguished Service Professor and Professor of Ecology and Evolutionary Biology at the University of Tennessee. Her work is at the interface between behavior, ecology, and evolutionary biology, and involves the extent to which populations are at adaptive equilibria with respect to their physical and biotic environments. These questions are pursued through genetic analyses of fitness-linked traits, through species optimum and game theoretic analyses and simulations, and through field manipulations and breeding experiments.
