Our lab aims to look understanding the evolution and spectacular diversity of Neotropical orchids mostly focusing in Epiphytes. We are broadly interested in comparative biology and work in between basic sciences and conservation biology approaches focusing on two main areas:

To answer questions in these areas we borrow modern molecular and bioinformatic tools developed from fields such: the “-omics", phylogenetics, population genetics and plant development.
