Kirschstein Fellowship before joining the faculty at the University of Nebraska in 2010. in 2006, she conducted postdoctoral research at Duke University through a National Institutes of Health Ruth L.
After obtaining her Ph.
D.
She returned to the United States to pursue a doctoral degree in Systematic Botany at the University of Wisconsin-Madison.
Supported by a British Marshall fellowship, she earned an M.
Phil in Botanical Diversity from the Universities of Reading and Birmingham in the United Kingdom in 2001.
Her research focuses on the evolution of floral diversity and spans the fields of phylogenetics, evolutionary genetics, comparative methods and pollination ecology.

Baum teaches Phylogenetic Biology at both the introductory and advanced levels and has been offering workshops on phylogenies and Tree thinking for K-12 teachers since 1999.
In 2006 he was elected Fellow of the American Association for the Advancement of Science for outstanding contributions in the investigation of plant evolution and for excellence in teaching and mentoring in phylogenetics and evolutionary biology.
Sloan Foundation Young Investigator Award, an NSF Career Award, and a John Simon Guggenheim Foundation Fellowship.
Baum\'s research has earned him awards including an Alfred P.
Wright Institute for the Study of Evolution.
He returned to the University of Wisconsin in 2001, and is now Professor and Chair of Botany and Director of the James F. in Population and Evolutionary Biology from Washington University in 1991, conducted postdoctoral research at the University of Wisconsin, and then served as Assistant and Associate Professor of Organismic and Evolutionary Biology at Harvard University.
He earned his Ph.
D.
Baum is a professor at the University of Wisconsin, where he conducts research in plant systematics, systematic theory, and plant evolutionary developmental genetics.
