个人简介
David Rowell did his BSc at ANU in the area of Botany and Zoology, followed by Honours in 1980, in the (then) new field of molecular systematics, examining the relationships amongst the Australian funnelweb spiders. Following a period as a statistical analyst and computer programmer, he completed a PhD at the ANU Research School of Biological Sciences in population genetics and the evolution of social behaviour in spiders. In 1988 he was appointed as a lecturer in Genetics at the ANU Department of Botany, subsequently the School of Botany and Zoology. He is currently Head of Biology Teaching and Learning at RSB. His research focuses on population genetics, phylogeography and chromosomal evolution in terrestrial invertebrates.
