Dr. Calisi became a faculty member in the Biology Department of Barnard College of Columbia University from 2014-2015 but was soon recruited to join the faculty of UC Davis in 2015. There, she started the B3 lab and leads a thriving research group that investigates how changes in the environment, particularly stressful ones, affect animal brains, health, and behaviors. In 2019, she became UC Davis’ first Faculty Advisor to the Dean of College of Biological Sciences for Science Communication. She is currently expanding her research program to encompass the study of science communication to support diversity, equity, and inclusion in STEM.

Victoria Farrar
Ph.D. Candidate since 2016
Animal Behavior Graduate Group
Victoria is broadly interested in how hormones coordinate behavioral tradeoffs and transitions during parental care. She earned her B.S. in Ecology and Evolutionary Biology with Honors at the University of Arizona. Before starting graduate school, she researched the effects of urbanization in house finches at Arizona State University. Victoria is currently examining the role prolactin plays in coordinating reproductive and stress responses in the HPG axis. She also is passionate about communicating science. You can check out some articles she's written for UC Davis' The Ethogram here. When not in lab, Victoria enjoys sketching, yoga, and biking.

Rechelle Viernes
Laboratory Manager and Research Technician
Rechelle received her undergraduate degree from U.C. Davis in June, 2017. During that time, she was an undergraduate researcher in our lab investigating the impacts of endocrine-disrupting compounds on the neurobiology, morphology, and behavior of Western Mosquitofish. We loved Rechelle so much that, post graduation, we invited her to stay on with us as a UC Davis Jr. Research Specialist. Now, she has been promoted to B3 Lab Manager and Research Technician. When she's not overseeing all that goes on in the lab, she's researching neurogenetic mechanisms mediating parental care behavior. During her free time, Rechelle enjoys taking her dog on day trips with her husband, visiting nearby family and friends, and going on food adventures.
