About Me
My name is Clayton Vondriska. I am an ecologist interested in the relationships between aquatic organisms and how environmental factors affect those interactions. I have primarily focused on parasite-host-cleaner relationships on Caribbean coral reefs.
​
My previous research at the University of Miami focused on the sensory ecology of marine parasites. My lab has recently started investigating the effects of climate change on the behavior of marine parasites. I have also conducted research on the behavior of cleaning organisms in the Caribbean.
