Biography
Ryan McCleary has been captivated by reptiles (especially snakes) and amphibians since a very early age. This fascination has led him to study snakes at many different levels, from characterizing proteins in venoms to examining the ecology of snake assemblages, in different areas of the world--from the swamps of Florida to the mangroves of Singapore. Specifically, McCleary is interested in the evolution of venom in snakes and in understanding its complexity at various levels of biological organization. He does this utilizing field studies and various laboratory "-omics" technologies.
