Research interests
I am a molecular ecologist that uses genomics, chemical markers and statistical models to understand natural populations, particularly marine mammals. The role of behaviour in shaping how connected different groups or populations has been a particular theme in my research; this has included migratory fidelity and migratory culture in southern right whales.
