Research Interests

  • Landscape genetics and ecology of terrestrial and aquatic organisms. Investigating genetic connectivity in massively altered landscapes in south-eastern Australia.
  • Population genetics and molecular ecology of the carnivorous marsupial the yellow-footed antechinus (Antechinus flavipes). Studying the effects of fallen-timber volumes, large, old trees and floods on A. flavipes.
