• PhD: Systematics of Asian cobras
  University of Aberdeen, 1990

Programme Organiser:

• BSc and MZool in Zoology with Herpetology

Module Organiser:

• BSX-2031 - Arizona Fieldcourse
• BSX-2028 - Introduction to Herpetology
• BSX-3158 - Advances in Herpetology

Module Contributor

• BNS-1002 - Organismal Diversity

• BSX-2021 - BioScience Skills
• BSX-2022 - Vertebrate Biology
• BSX-3070 - Dissertation in Biological Sciences
• BSM-4000 - Masters Research Project

My research interests span a wide range of topics in evolution, systematics and ecology, using primarily snakes as a model system. Current and recent topics have included the evolution of venom composition and its selective drivers, the origin of snake venom systems, species delimitation in snake species complexes, the evolution of warning signals and mimicry systems, biogeography, phylogeography and ecology.

I am interested in supervising postgraduate students in a range of topics in herpetology and toxinology, in particular:

• Conservation genomics of European vipers
• Evolution and ecology of venoms
• Snake systematics, taxonomy and phylogeny
• Snake ecology

Please drop me a line if you are interested and want to explore possibilities.

• Why is snake venom composition so variable?

  Abstract

  Venomous snakebites kill over 100,000 people annually worldwide, and permanently disable many more. One of the key obstacles to the treatment of snakebites is the extreme variation in venom composition, even between loosely related species and within species. In this presentation, I will explore the evidence for different potential selection pressures acting on venom composition, primarily for the functions of foraging and defence. A considerable number of studies has provided evidence for the role of selection for diet as a major driver of venom evolution across a variety of groups. In contrast, evidence for selection for a defensive role is limited and patchy, with a few notable exceptions. Our ability to understand the selective pressures affecting venom composition is hindered by a remarkable paucity of data on the natural history of venom and venom use by snakes in the wild. Citizen science contributions, especially chance observations of interactions between snakes and their prey and predators, are key to expanding our understanding of the ecological context of venom evolution.

• Drivers and mechanisms of variation in snake venom composition

  Variation in venom composition is ubiquitous among snakes at all levels, from temporal variation within individuals to differences between major clades. Much recent research has tried to understand both the extrinsic drivers of this variation (e.g., natural selection, phylogeny) and the underlying genetic mechanisms.

  A growing body of research has identified natural selection for optimization of venom to diet as an important driver of venom evolution, resulting in patterns of variation incongruent with taxonomic or phylogenetic affinities. The evolution of venom resistance in some prey species leads to the possibility of predator-prey arms races between snakes and their prey. However, while pairwise relationships between snakes and particular prey have received much attention, this is not the case for the role of venoms in complex food webs involving both snake prey and snake predators. Selection for a defensive function of venom has been postulated in some cases, but surveys of snakebitten patients do not reveal the pattern of early severe pain predicted by this hypothesis, including in species with cytotoxic venom activity.

  At the genetic level, -omics technologies are providing unparalleled insights into the genetic mechanisms and processes underlying venom composition. Different genome-level and postgenomic processes control venom composition in different species: whereas genome-level presence or absence of toxin genes underlies most compositional variation in some rattlesnakes, post-genomic mechanisms play a much greater role in at least some Old World vipers, but generalisations are not yet justified by the available evidence.

  Despite much progress, many knowledge gaps remain. More “genome to fang tip” studies of the genetic mechanisms underlying venom composition are required to detect general patterns. However, while –omics technologies promise to reveal the mechanisms of snake venom evolution, we remain critically short of rigorous natural history data on snakes and their interactions with prey and predators alike; hindering our understanding the role of venom in snake biology.
