Lab overview: Researchers in my lab are engaged in a wide variety of projects that implement molecular genetic techniques in the study of ecological and evolutionary questions in marine environments. My research program is presently organized around several themes, including dispersal and connectivity in marine environments, the evolution of marine biodiversity, and marine conservation.
