Research Statement

Natural history, morphological evolution, and speciation genetics in the nematode genus Caenorhabditis.  In particular I am interested in develomental constraint and the evolution of adaptive gene complexes.  Recent projects include characterizations of nematode-isopod associations, the evolution of caudal papillae pattern in male nematodes, and characterizations of post-zygotic reproductive isolation mechanisms in various combinations of Caenorhabditis species.
