He joined the university in 2005 after several years of postdoctoral research at the Queensland Museum in Brisbane, Australia and the Smithsonian Marine Station in Fort Pierce, Florida. His research is focused on the anatomy, ecology and evolution of the minor “aschelminth” phyla. His long-term goals are to attract more students to the study of “aschelminth” biology and raise awareness about the roles of these minor taxa in ecology and evolution. Dr. Hochberg teaches courses in Invertebrate Zoology (Introductory and Advanced), Marine Biology, and related courses. He is also a Research Associate with the Smithsonian National Museum of Natural History. Quick Links
