Ray Huey and friends at last year’s World Herpetological Congress in Vancouver

Learn about Ray’s storied past.

Ray Huey has been a pioneer in the field of physiological ecology and evolution. Building on the work of Ruibal, Rand,Williams and others (as he always stresses), Ray was instrumental in making anoles a model for understanding thermal biology, integrating behavior, physiology, evolution and,  most recently, conservation biology. And then there’s Ray’s other side. Who else could get away with using a Rolling Stone‘s album in the title of a paper?

A symposium in Ray’s honor will be held in Seattle on Friday, October 4th and is open to anyone, but attendance is limited, so register today. All the details are available on the fest’s website. Whether you attend or not, check out the Hueyblog and add your own tributes and reminiscences.
