Research

Current Research Projects:

Dr. Zack Graham is a co-principal investigator of the West Liberty University (WLU) Crayfish Lab alongside Dr. Zac Loughman. Zack is an evolutionary and behavioral ecologist who studies crayfish diversity. The goal of his research is to untangle the ecological and evolutionary complexities that have led crayfishes to be amongst the most successful freshwater animals within the Eastern United States and beyond. Much of this work integrates morphological, behavioral, and comparative studies.

He is the author of an upcoming popular science book on crayfish titled, “Crayfish, Crawfish, Crawdad: The Biology and Conservation of North America’s Favorite Crustaceans”, published by UNC Press.
