Rhagolwg
I am an evolution biologist broadly interested in understanding how natural populations evolve under different environmental conditions. Current research foci in my lab include amphibian (largely frog) genetics/genomics, invasive species genetics, and adaptation in fruit flies.

Evolution | Genomics | Adaptation | Speciation | Host-Microbe Interactions.
We ask questions in these areas using experimental, population sampling, and genomic approaches, and use drosophilid flies, amphibians, and their microbes as models.
