Associate Professor of biology and Director of the Institute of Ecology and Evolution at the University of Oregon. Research interests lie at the intersection of ecology, evolution, and genetics/genomics of adaptation and speciation.
In doing this work, we also highlight potential limitations of 4-taxon tests of introgression for determining the relative timing of past gene flow events.

We also detect widespread evidence of selection against gene flow, as well as localized regions of adaptive introgression - highlighting the dynamic role of hybridization in shaping genomes.

In this study, we used coalescent simulations and WGS to reveal a complex evolutionary history of recent and ancient introgression between endemic island monkeyflowers.
