Biography
Mark Blows is professor, Vice Chancellor, Faculty of Science, at The university of Queensland Australia. Much of his research involves developing multivariate statistical approaches to the analysis of the genetic basis of complex traits, and the selection acting upon them, which are then applied to questions in statistical genetics and evolutionary biology.
Research Interest
His research interests are in evolutionary quantitative genetics.
