Welcome to my website!
I am a researcher interested in understanding the ecological and evolutionary mechanisms shaping patterns of biological diversity across space and time. To address this multidimensional question, I apply genetic data obtained by high-throughput DNA sequencing to study natural populations and ecological communities of a broad spectrum of fauna organisms.
The integration of genomic, phenotypic and ecological information with spatial modelling is paramount for the development of my research, which currently lies at the intersection of population genetics, landscape genetics, community ecology and phylogenomics. Specifically, my research focuses on understanding how the interplay between abiotic (e.g. geography, landscape, climate change) and biotic factors (e.g. hybridization, host-plant interactions), determine: (i) gene flow among populations, (ii) genetic diversity and demographic history, (iii) lineage/species diversification, and (iv) diversity, assembly and phylogenetic structure of ecological communities.
This allows me to focus these complementary research elements within the ultimate objective of my research: exploiting the intersection of the cross-disciplinary fields of biodiversity and conservation genetics to provide evidence-based knowledge that can be integrated into conservation agendas that are confronted with the challenges of global change.
