研究领域

My general interests are in sexual selection and evolutionary/physiological ecology. I am particularly interested in testing how life-history trade-offs affect fitness, especially with regard to whole-organism performance capacities. By studying performance within a quantitative-genetic/life-history framework, my current research aims to understand how fitness is affected (and determined) by the genetic and phenotypic relationships among performance and other important life-history traits, such as sexual attractiveness, in different selective contexts. My recent collaborative work has also examined aging and the life-history factors affecting it in insects. Other research interests include: The ecology and evolution of sexual dimorphism The evolution of sexual signalling Anolis functional and evolutionary ecology
