Research Interests

We study how the environment influences development to regulate morphology, and how this regulation evolves to generate diversity. We are particularly interested in how the environment influences body and organ size, using the fruit fly, Drosophila melanogaster, as a model organism. Our work integrates genetics, physiology, and evolution.
