Paul CaraDonna, PhD, principal investigator (Chicago Botanic Garden, Northwestern University, & The Rocky Mountain Biological Laboratory).

Jane Ogilive, PhD, postdoc & project manager (Chicago Botanic Garden & Rocky Mountain Biological Lab). Jane is currently working on projects related to the consequences of pollinator declines for plant populations, the ecology of bumble bee queens, and phenological responses to climate change in the Colorado Rocky Mountains.

Justin Bain, PhD candidate (NSF Graduate Research Fellow; Northwestern University, Chicago Botanic Garden, & Rocky Mountain Biological Lab). Justin is studying the various factors that contribute to the diet breadth of bees and the structure of plant-pollinator interactions in the Colorado Rocky Mountains.

Andrea Gruver, MSc student (NSF Graduate Research Fellow; Northwestern University & Chicago Botanic Garden). Andrea is studying the community ecology of bees in the City of Chicago. She also loves identifying bees.

Jackie Fitzgerald, PhD student (NSF Graduate Research Fellow; Northwestern University & Chicago Botanic Garden). Jackie is interested in understanding the effects of global climate change on the structure of plant-pollinator communities.

Amelia Litz, PhD student (co-advised with Amy Iler; Northwestern University and Chicago Botanic Garden). Amelia's research aims to characterize the nesting habitat of solitary, ground-nesting bees in wild ecosystems. By addressing this key gap in our knowledge of these important pollinators, broader ecological questions such as, how ground-nesting species will respond to changes in land use and the climate, can be investigated.

Victoria Delira, Combined undergraduate + MSc. Student (Northwestern University & The Rocky Mountain Biological Lab). Vicky's research focuses on the pollination ecology of subalpine plants in Colorado.

Amy Iler, PhD. Principal Investigator (Chicago Botanic Garden). The other half of the Iler + CaraDonna Lab Group.

Will Petry, PhD (lab associate, ETH Zurich & Princeton University). We love working with Will. He is a collaborator on our pollinator declines and plant population dynamics grant.

Zoe Birdie CaraDonna (Research Bub). Zoe's work focuses on the theoretical ecology of consumer-resource dynamics.

Nick Waser, PhD, & Mary Price, PhD (lab associates, Rocky Mountain Biological Laboratory).

Gwen Kirschke, undergraduate researcher (Agnes Scott College & The Rocky Mountain Biological Lab). Gwen is working with us to characterize the nectar landscape available to bumble bees in subalpine meadows.

Laura Caride, undergraduate researcher (Northwestern University). Laura has worked with us to study city bees, but most recently has been part of our "seed blasting" team.

Bailey Fluegel, undergraduate researcher (Northwestern University). Bailey is a dedicated "seed blaster" working on our pollination and demography project.

Clayton Pokorny, undergraduate researcher (Northwestern University). Clayton is part of our "seed blasting" team.

Luke Liu, undergraduate researcher (Northwestern University). Luke has been analyzing a large dataset to help us understand how the synchrony of plant-pollinator interactions is responding to climate change.

Nolan Carothers, undergraduate research intern (Lake Forest College & Chicago Botanic Garden). Nolan is helping us process plant reproductive samples as part of our pollination demography project.

Maggie Cheever & Lucia Basacoma, undergraduate researchers (Northwestern University). Maggie and Lucia are part of our "seed blasting" team where they have been helping us process seeds as part of our pollination and demography project.

John Zhang, undergraduate researcher (Northwestern University). John has been working on pollen protein analysis, which is helping us to better understand bee diets under field conditions.
