Broadly my research is in mammalian evolution, biogeography, ecological modelling and genomics to inform conservation management of wildlife populations. In my research, I aim to apply population genetic concepts and new modelling tools to address ecological and evolutionary questions. Population genetics and genomics are important in conservation management of rare and threatened species for delineation of conservation units, determining patterns of genetic connectivity across landscapes, and assessing the status and long-term viability of species. 

A major focus of my research program is the application of population genetics and genomics to address critical questions for biodiversity conservation and disease research. Another part of my research focusses on the ecological drivers to population demographics, assessing how environmental fluctuations drive key popualtion parameters such as annual survival, breeding and predicting future population trajectories.
