Biography

Aim to understand how natural selection shapes the life history and behaviour of wild animal populations. Our work focuses mainly on seabirds (shags, boobies, gulls, shearwaters, guillemots, etc) living in islands but has also involved studies on fishes and other vertebrate species. We are also interested in wildlife conservation and the consequences of human actions for the diversity (see our research on the effects of the Prestige oil spill

Research Intrest

Gene expression and the evolution of complex phenotypes Senescence in wild animals Social evolution and family coadaptation Seabird conservation
