Bio/Research
My general interests are in ecology, evolution and conservation - especially of plants. I am particularly interested in patterns of biodiversity at multiple levels (species and genetic), and all of the processes that create these patterns, including human-induced landscape alterations. Two overarching goals drive my current research program:
(1) To advance an integrated understanding of how ecological and evolutionary processes interact to determine the structure and dynamics of populations and communities
.
(2) To understand the historical and contemporary processes – especially anthropogenic disturbances and environmental change – that have shaped present-day patterns of biodiversity.
