Activity summary

My research combines ecological and molecular tools to understand the mechanistic underpinnings of organisms' responses to environmental change and disturbance. I am particularly interested in aspects of population structure, regulation and evolutionary adaptation of marine and coastal biota. The ultimate goal is to inform restoration and conservation actions. I am also the Managing Editor of Restoration Ecology (journal)
