Postdoctoral Research Assistant in Evolutionary Biology, University of Oxford I am interested in behavioural and evolutionary biology. I am driven to try to understand the evolutionary consequences of environmental and social complexity for different traits including life-history traits, mate choice, and sperm traits. I am driven to explore new avenues to understand key drivers of the evolution of traits such as behavioural variation and its link to environmental changes and learning abilities. I am also interested in broad questions that can be addressed through meta-analyses. I have always been intrigued by female cryptic choice and how males can modify their sperm to influence their reproductive success.
