About Derek Coss

In Dec. 2015, I graduated with an associate's degree in biology and with the prestige of high honors at Hagerstown Community College. I then attended the University of Maryland Baltimore County for my B.S. in biological science, graduating magna cum laude and with an honors certificate from the Honors College.For 2 years I worked with UMBC's biology department as an undergraduate research assistant studying the evolutionary aspects of bluebird song, from which I have gained experience with bioacoustic software such as Raven, Syrinx, and Signal. I also undertook an independent project in Dr. Kevin Omland's Lab on Migratory Return Rates and Breeding Fidelity of Eastern Bluebirds (Sialia sialis), which I presented at AOS 2017.I graduated from Salisbury University with my Master of Science in applied biology, working in the Taylor-Hunter lab. I researched sexual selection and multimodal signaling in tungara frogs in Gamboa, Panama. Specifically, I studied how acoustic and visual noise affect female mate choice in this species. I analyzed the soundscape complexity of choruses to replicate natural levels of chorus noise. I also performed genetic population monitoring using ddRADseq methodology and bioinformatics.I then served as a Maryland Conservation Corps member with the Maryland Park Service for two years, followed by a half a year of being a Crew Leader until I ultimately moved to Japan in the Spring.Now I am currently living in Japan, teaching English and creating videos on my YouTube channel: Crossing to Japan.

Herpetologist

Catoctin Wildlife Preserve And Zoo

Thurmont, Maryland, United States

As part of this position, I monitored and cared for over 200 reptiles and amphibians. I handled snakes, alligators, aquatic turtles, and lizards for education. I responded to medical emergencies and provided necessary life support based on veterinarian advice. Occasionally, I captured and relocated wild snakes from the zoo. On a daily basis, I kept.

Graduate Teaching Assistant

Salisbury University

Taught multiple sections of Anatomy Physiology I and II labs, providing lectures and hands-on experience to undergraduate students. Also assisted with Genetic Analysis lab sections, training students on ddRADseq and population structure analysis (using STRUCTURE and statistical analyses like AMOVA and DAPC in R).

Aug 2018 - May 2020

Masters Student

Salisbury University

Salisbury, Maryland

Researched the impact of multimodal (visual and vocal) noise on female tungara frog mate choice. Using soundscape technology, I analyzed the structure of sounds in frog choruses to understand how both conspecifics and heterospecifics could be affecting mate choice and how the complexity of the soundscape varies across location. I conducted phonotaxis.
