Research Interest
As an evolutionary biologist I am interested in host-parasite coevolution, host-parasite local adaptation and host range evolution as well as the influence of abiotic and biotic factors on the respective evolutionary dynamics. Studying host range evolution of prophages as well as the interaction with Vibrio bacteria and final animal hosts consitutes the core of my current work. To answer my research questions, I work on a model system covering a three-species interaction consisting of temperate Vibriophages (prophages), Vibrio bacteria and pipefish as final animal hosts
