Research Interests Plants have developed an incredible variety of strategies to survive to the different challenges they encounter in nature – harsh climates, lack of nutrients, herbivores, etc. The goal of our research is to obtain a comprehensive understanding of this adaptive diversity: how it mediates the interactions between plants and their environment, what are […]

Teching Interests As an ecology instructor and lab coordinator, I endeavour to inspire interest and excitement about the natural world. Ecology is a complex discipline that encapsulates numerous processes occurring at a variety of scales. This makes for a diverse learning experience, but also provides unique challenges for undergraduate students to navigate. Accordingly, I cultivate […]

Research Interest My research interests intersect among molecular genetics, genomics, and molecular evolution. My lab’s research is in the areas of genome evolution, molecular evolution, and gene expression – transcriptomics. We study how gene expression patterns, regulation, alternative splicing, and functions evolve. We focus on genes duplicated by whole genome duplication (polyploidy) and other duplication mechanisms at […]
