Much of the extraordinary diversity that characterizes the natural world results from the process of adaptation. My research focuses on determining how adaptive processes, such as changes in DNA, shape diversification in populations, and ultimately how this can lead to the formation of new species. My lab is currently investigating the molecular basis of incompatibilities between male and female molecules that occur within the female reproductive tract after mating between different species of fruit flies. This contributes to understanding the genetic basis of speciation, and is relevant to research into human fertility and the control of insect pests that threaten human health and agriculture.
