I am interested in mechanisms that underlie the origin and maintenance of biodiversity in reptiles and amphibians. A common theme in the Zamudio lab is identifying and measuring mechanisms of temporal and spatial changes in population genetic differentiation. To do so we address questions at various scales, ranging from individuals (mating systems, relatedness, or reproductive success), to populations (fine-scale population genetics and phylogeography), to species (higher-level systematics).
