Research Interests
On a broad scale, my interests lie in the conservation, ecology, and evolution of reptiles. I am interested in using ecological and population genomics and bioinformatics to broaden the horizons of conservation ecology and evolution. My current research in the Parkinson Lab is investigating the evolution of garter snake venom and its relationship with ecological characteristics such as diet.
