I apply evolutionary and environmental genomics approaches in combination with complimentary analyses (e.g. palynology, macrofossils, radiocarbon dating, stable isotope analyses) to study the composition and functioning of terrestrial ecosystems over the past 50,000 years. Particular interests include using ancient environmental DNA as a palaeoecological tool, understanding the origins and preservation of ancient DNA in sediments, and palaeodietary analyses.
