Project

Evolutionary rescue in aquatic freshwater metacommunities exposed to multiple stressors
I'm interested in applying a metacommunity approach to understanding the eco-evolutionary dynamics of freshwater ecosystems, and in particular, advancing research on the importance of evolutionary history, connectivity and their interaction, as key ingredients conferring adaptive resistance and/or compensation to aquatic metacommunities across diverse and complex heterogeneous landscapes.
