Research Interests: My fundamental research goals are to understand: (1) the processes by which genetic variation in maintained in natural populations, (2) the genetic and environmental bases for phenotypic expression, at all levels of biological organization, (3) how selection can be measured in nature, again at all levels of biological organization, and (4) how mating systems and alternative mating strategies evolve.
