About

In our lab, we study sexual selection and reproductive trait evolution. We use insects as our model systems and study particularly widespread species across large geographical clines. We use both comparative and experimental methods to study macro-evolutionary patterns as well as micro-evolutionary processes involved in reproduction. For instance:
 

How do reproductive traits respond to natural and sexual selection? 
What is the underlying genetic variation and fitness consequences associated with variation in trait expression?
​How could selection on males and females lead to reproductive isolation?
