Research interests

Broadly, I am interested in how biodiversity has co-evolved with the planetary environment over four billion years, and how it is responding now to human-caused environmental changes.

Biological disciplines represented in the research include astrobiology, biodiversity, bioinformatics, conservation, ecology, genomics, molecular evolution, natural history, paleontology, phylogenetics, and systematics. Other disciplines represented are astronomy, climatology, and geology.
