Kayla Coldsnow, Ph.D.

My passions lie in investigating how humans impact ecosystems and science communication. Specifically, I am interested in the costs to organisms and  communities and the interactions of multiple stressors. Additionally, I have spent a large part of my life communicating my research and the research of others to the public, showing them how they use science every day and inspiring younger generations to pursue careers that involve science.

​

In May 2020, I completed my Ph.D. at Rensselaer Polytechnic Institute where I worked with Dr. Rick Relyea and was a part of the Darrin Fresh Water Institute and the Jefferson Project at Lake George.

​

Now, I am a biologist with the EPA in Research Triangle Park, North Carolina.
