Answer 1:
I am currently working on 3 research projects,
all of which involve population and/or
evolutionary genetics.
1. My primary project is investigating the
population genetics of kelp (a seaweed).
This work involves examining the degree to which
populations that occur along the west coast of
North America are connected through reproduction.
I began working on this project in 1996 and it has
continued, with many outgrowths and related
projects, to current.
2. I am also working on a project that
investigates the evolution of particular genes
involved in heat stress physiology in Antarctic
fish. This project began in 1999 and continues
to present.
3. My third project is examining gene
expression patterns (which genes turn on and off
and when) in marine organisms. This is a new
project that began earlier this year and is
continuing. Click Here to return to the search form.
