Biography
Education: University of California, Berkeley, May 2009 Ph.D. in Environmental Science Policy and Management State University of New York, Stony Brook, 2001-2002 Doctoral Candidate University of California, Berkeley, May 2000 B.A. with Honors in Integrative Biology University of California, Berkeley, May 2000 B.A. in English Literature Research Interests: Research in his lab focuses on species diversity, determining the role of ecological and evolutionary processes in generating this diversity, and developing management and conservation strategies that incorporate these processes. There team develop and apply genetic approaches to address research questions, often integrating spatial environmental data, ecological studies, physiological experiments, and morphological variation.
Research Interest
Rapid evolutionary change Biogeography, local adaptation and gene flow Biological responses to global change
