Wigby, Stuart - University of Oxford

研究领域

I am broadly interested in the evolutionary biology of reproduction, and my research covers sexual selection, sexual conflict, speciation, sperm competition, mating and immunity, life history and ageing. I use the fruit fly, Drosophila melanogaster, as a model organism to investigate these topics. My current main research questions are: 1) Why are sex and ageing linked? 2) Why do some individuals have more mates than others?
