Research Description
Research in our lab stems from a broad interest in ecological and evolutionary processes that shape natural populations. My research program is both laboratory and field-based, and typically explores fundamental questions in biodiversity using an interdisciplinary approach that combines genetics, molecular ecology, developmental biology, organismal biology, and population ecology to address hypotheses of population genetic structure, community and population diversity, reproduction, molecular systematics, phylogenetics, and biogeography. In addition, these studies seek to better inform management actions and improve conservation and restoration efforts.
