I am a population geneticist/genomicist with a strong background in ecology, evolutionary biology, population genetics and phylogenetics. However, my research is founded on an integrative approach combining molecular, morphological, ecological and behavioural data with modelling techniques, and aims to disentangle factors involved in speciation as well as those shaping species distributions through time and space. My work ranges from:

elucidating the proximate and ultimate causes of speciation and the interplay between natural and sexual selection
studies on species distributions and population dynamics (e.g. range shifts/contractions/expansions)
investigations into current population structure in relation to habitat and climatic environment
predictions about the impact that current/future change (e.g. climate change, invasive species, habitat change) will have on species ranges, genetic diversity, connectivity between populations and diseases
studies on host-pathogen interactions with particular attention to pathogen's reservoirs, modes of infection, and transmission and their impact on host fitness
