Biography

Biography

I am Head of School ( Biological and Marine Sciences) and Director of the Centre of Research Excellence in Intelligent and Sustainable Productive Systems.
I have two main areas of interest; genetic diversity and conservation. For most areas of my research, these two topics overlap in answering questions about the sustainability of species in ex-situ conservation or the management of wild populations. This overlap extends to sustainable agriculture and restorative farming, where species production can be improved while limiting negative local effects and potentially increasing biodiversity and ecosystem services.  I am also interested in pure species conservation (especially of amphibians), in the links between conservation and local human communities, and in statistical genetics. I am very interested in experimental design and statistics and the application of novel methods of data analysis.
In general, I am interested in how genetic diversity within a species influences its diversity and evolution. Beyond this, diversity within a species can impact other species or even entire communities of species and the ecosystem services they provide.
