I am interested in diverse evolutionary analysis of genetic data at the molecular and population levels. My areas of research include Population Genetics, Molecular Evolution, Molecular Adaptation, Genetic Diversity, Phylogenetics and Phylogenomics, Virus Evolution, Molecular Ecology, among others.
