Dr. David M. Hillis's research interests concern the                       analysis of ribosomal genes of representatives of each of the                   families of frogs, as well as other amphibians.  Such molecular                 techniques are extremely powerful as a means of recovering                      evolutionary history over the hundreds of millions of years of                  amphibian evolution.  This work includes sequencing a portion of                the 28S ribosomal RNA gene that contains numerous insertions                    (added lengths of genetic code).                                                     In addition, two other problems occupy Hillis's attention.                 First, he is involved in efforts to isolate and identify specific               gene fragments from well-preserved 10,000 year old human remains                found at Little Salt Spring, Florida.  Second, he is studying the               genetics of the highly polymorphic tree snail Liguus fasciatus,                 which has proven to consist of populations that reproduce with                  genetic recombination in some locations but clonally and without                genetic recombination at others.  Dr. Hillis's academic                         institution is the University of Texas at Austin.  Funding is                   provided through a Presidential Young Investigator Award for a                  duration of five years.
