Professor, Chair of Environmental Genomics
-
Aug 2012 - Present
Work by my research group encompasses the fields of evolutionary ecology, high-throughput biology, environmental and functional genomics. From this blend of disciplines emerges a research program that centers on connecting gene expression and genome structure with individual fitness and population-level responses to environmental challenges. I regularly work with industry and advise government agencies and professional societies, aiming to transform practices at monitoring and protecting the environment, by utilizing high-throughput molecular biology methods applied to ecological and biomedical model systems.
