One of my principal research interests is to understand why species are distributed and assembled the way they are.
This involves three main research steps: 1) describe the distribution of diversity; 2) place diversity patterns within a temporal context; 3) explore adaptive responses to local selective filters. In the lab we combine genetic (increasingly genomic), environmental and ecological data to investigate factors that affect diversification across a range of spatial and temporal scales.
