Megan Keller
Ph.D. Candidate in Microbiology, Cornell University
A microbiologist by training and a writer by passion. I research the mechanisms behind antibiotic tolerance and how this process relates to other cellular processes. With an aspiration to bridge the gap between academia and the public, I have spent time bettering my communication skills through various workshops, programs, and seminars.
I enjoy outreach programs where I get to directly connect with my local community. I taught a class on sewage and public health this past semester to over 20 undergraduates. I additionally started my own website and write for The Cornell Daily Sun. I am excited to expand the scope of my audience through The Conversation!

Megan Phifer-Rixey
Assistant Professor of Biology, Drexel University
Megan Phifer-Rixey is an assistant professor in the Department of Biology at Drexel University. She is an evolutionary biologist, and her research is motivated by the challenge of making connections between genotype, phenotype, and fitness, especially for complex traits and in the context of changing environments. The Phifer-Rixey lab uses many different approaches—combining genomics and population genetics with fieldwork and organismal functional studies. The lab also investigates fundamental questions in evolutionary genetics relating to adaptation, speciation, and demography, primarily focusing on wild house mice. House mice are one of the mostly widely used genetic model systems and they have recently spread around the world in association with humans. This combination makes them a great system for studying evolutionary genetics and the genetics of adaptation to new environments. The lab also collaborates on projects relating to marine genetics and biology education.
Megan earned her B.S. in Biology from Duke University and her Ph.D. in Biology from the University of Pennsylvania. As a Ph.D. student, Megan was awarded a Doctoral Dissertation Improvement Grant from the National Science Foundation. Afterwards, she joined the University of Arizona as a postdoctoral researcher and then continued her postdoctoral work at the University of California, Berkeley with Dr. Michael Nachman. In 2016, she joined the Biology Department at Monmouth University as an Assistant Professor. In 2021, she was awarded an NSF CAREER grant to study the genetics of urbanization in house mice. She joined the Department of Biology at Drexel University in 2023 where she will continue her work in evolutionary genetics with an emphasis on the impacts of urbanization.

Megan Sarno
Assistant Professor of Music, University of Texas at Arlington
Megan Sarno is Assistant Professor of Music at the University of Texas at Arlington. She was previously Visiting Assistant Professor of Music at Carleton and St Olaf Colleges. She earned her PhD at Princeton University in 2016.
Her research focuses on the cultural dimensions of early 20th-century French music. Dr. Sarno’s published work includes an article in 19th-Century Music on the music of little-known French composer André Caplet. Focusing on his final work, the song cycle "Le Miroir de Jésus," Sarno uses archival materials, as well as literary and music analysis, to explain subtle layers of meaning in Caplet’s songs. Her 2018 article in Journal of Musicological Research investigates the 1911 stage music of composer Claude Debussy. The work, "Le Martyre de Saint Sébastien," has been long misunderstood. Using literary and music analysis, Sarno argues that Debussy’s music highlights the Symbolist poetic qualities of Le Martyre.
Though her work is focused on French music, Sarno is broadly interested in the social and intellectual function of music—why composers write it and why listeners keep returning to it. Sarno has taught on a wide range of topics, from Baroque and Classical repertory through the music in Disney films. She enjoys teaching music majors and non-majors alike, encouraging students to draw on their own musicality to engage with assignments. Previous courses include American Musical Theater, Songs and Identity, Women and Music, Religion and Music, Disney Movie Musicals, Music of the Cold War, and American Music.
Sarno has presented her work on French music and literary culture internationally and in the United States, at the Society for the American Musicological Society, the North American Conference on Nineteenth-Century Music, Music and the Moving Image, and special meetings on Fauré, Debussy, Saint-Saëns, French Creative Women, and Musical Life in 20th-Century Paris. She has won numerous grants for pedagogical innovation. In 2016, she was the recipient of a Chateaubriand Fellowship, which funded a semester of archival research in Paris, France.
