Patricia G. Parker

Patricia G. Parker is a North American evolutionary biologist who uses molecular techniques to assess social structures, particularly in avian populations. Her interests have shaped her research in disease transmission and population size, particularly in regard to bird conservation. She received her B.S. in Zoology in 1975 and her Ph.D. in Behavioral Ecology in 1984, both from the University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill. From 1991 to 2000, Parker was an Assistant and Associate Professor in the Department of Evolution, Ecology, and Organismal Biology at Ohio State University. From 2000 to 2022, she was the Des Lee Professor of Zoological Studies at the University of Missouri–St. Louis.^[1]

Parker’s research focused on disease transmission in birds, their susceptibility and how they achieve protection from such diseases. Her efforts were in the context of conservation of birds in the Galapagos Islands. Parker's lab collaborated with the St. Louis Zoo's Wildcare Institute to further this research.

In 2016 she was awarded the Brewster Medal from the American Ornithologist's Union for her work as an author.
