Ray Fisher, Ph.D.
Ray Fisher, Ph.D., is a postdoctoral researcher at the University of Arkansas, expert in mite systematics, and an avid naturalist. “If you want to study everything,” he says, “just specialize on an organismal group that … parasitizes everything! So, I am a specialist on mites, which allows me to be a generalist exploring the scale and wonder of life.” Here, he pauses while grading insect taxonomy collections.
