My research interests focus on ecological and evolutionary interactions and how these interactions are influenced by exposure of populations to novel environments, such as harvesting, drug treatment, climate change and adaptation at species range margins. I’m particularly interested in how life histories respond to selection in different environments and what role plasticity might play in this process.
