Dr. Luke Musher is a research scientist at Drexel University. He completed his Ph.D. at the Richard Gilder Graduate School of the American Museum of Natural History studying how biodiversity originates in the tropics. His research focuses on the evolutionary history of birds in the Amazon rainforest, which is the most biodiverse ecosystem on the planet. Dr. Musher has been birding for more than sixteen years, and during that time he has travelled all over the United States and Latin America for both research and bird watching. Still, he loves birding in New York.
