I am interested in evolutionary ecology, particularly how variation in reproductive traits and life-history strategies arises and how this can influence fitness. My DPhil project focuses on paternal effects in Drosophila melanogaster. I will investigate how paternal genotype, and its interaction with maternal genotype, can influence offspring traits and fitness.
