Teaching
My teaching interests span evolutionary biology, animal behaviour, molecular ecology and genetics.
Research
-
The evolution of complex traits, such as social organization and sexual mode, and the role of both genes and environment on these traits.
-
The effect of gene expression in diploid and haploid life stages / genders on rates of evolution.
-
The dynamics and resolution of social conflicts within animal societies.
I am interested in the evolution of complex traits, such as social organization and sexual mode, and the role of both genes and environment on these traits. I am also interested in the dynamics and resolution of social conflicts within animal societies.
