Biography and Research Information

OverviewAI-generated summary

Maxwell D. Carnes-Mason studies the physiology and behavior of reptiles, with a particular focus on the process of ecdysis, or shedding. His research investigates the metabolic costs, duration, and environmental triggers for this crucial life event in species such as the timber rattlesnake. Carnes-Mason has explored how temperature manipulation can induce ecdysis in laboratory settings and examined the temporal aspects of life history, including time allocation in individual female reptiles. His work aims to understand the energetic implications of ecdysis for reptile populations.

Carnes-Mason has collaborated with Steven J. Beaupré and Allison R. Litmer, both from the University of Arkansas at Fayetteville, on multiple publications. His scholarly output includes five publications with an h-index of 2 and 11 total citations. He is actively publishing, with recent work appearing in 2024 and 2025.
