Research in evolution bridges over several disciplines, including ecology, behaviour and genetics, to understand the processes driving adaptation in response to environmental pressures, combining both lab-based studies as well as investigating wild natural systems.
We explore questions related to:
local adaptation
reproductive timing
sociality
dispersal
life history optimisation
Using techniques including:
translocation and common garden experiments
phenotypic analyses (e.g. morphological, behavioural, and life-history traits)
