Stillingsbeskrivelse

I am a marine evolutionary biologist specializing in population genomics and phenotypic variation in marine systems, with a particular focus on how adaptive processes shape population structure in highly connected environments. My research integrates whole-genome sequencing and phenotypic approaches (e.g., otolith-based analyses) to investigate how spatial and temporal heterogeneity, life-history traits, and genomic architecture interact to generate biological diversity in marine fishes.

My work focuses on resolving complex and often cryptic population structure, with an emphasis on understanding how heterogeneous genomic divergence emerges under gene flow. I am particularly interested in the role of genomic architecture (e.g., structural variants), environmental gradients, and life-history variation in shaping adaptive differentiation, and in developing integrative frameworks that combine genomic and phenotypic data to improve population inference.

My research sits at the interface of evolutionary biology, conservation genomics, and applied fisheries science, with strong implications for stock identification, sustainable exploitation, and aquaculture management. I am particularly interested in understanding how adaptive diversity is generated, maintained, and potentially eroded under anthropogenic pressures, and in translating genomic insights into practical management strategies.
