Royal Society University Research Fellow

I use genomic methods to test ideas in population genetics and evolutionary theory, particularly in the context of speciation and hybridisation. I was at the University of Cambridge for my PhD and stayed there for my first research fellowship, where I worked on population genomics and speciation in Heliconius butterflies. Before that I worked on fungal genetics during my masters at the University of Pretoria, in my original home country of South Africa.
