Subjectarea

My research focuses on the ecology and evolution of fishes and elasmobranchs (sharks and rays). I address theoretical and applied questions using a combination of field, experimental, and molecular genetic methods to facilitate the implementation of evidence-based conservation plans and sustainable harvest regimes.
