Kort presentation
I have broad interests in the fields of ecological genetics and genomics, but am particularly interested in how changing environmental conditions impact genetic variation.
Nyckelord
- evolutionary biology
- quantitative genetics

Forskning
My research aims to understand how populations adapt to changing environmental conditions. To do so I work on different vertebrate and invertebrate study system depending on what is most suitable for the question of interest and combine sequencing techniques with experimental work, including functional tools.
