Sarah combines phylogenetics, molecular evolution, and genomics to understand plant speciation and adaptation. She studied hybridisation in Indian-painbrushes and developed novel nuclear markers for plant phylogenetics during her MSc and PhD degrees from Montana State University. She went from there to Harvard University as an NSF Postdoctoral Fellow to work on the phylogenetics of basal angiosperms. From 2000-2003 Sarah was an assistant professor at the University of Missouri, Columbia, and then returned to Harvard University as a Sargent Fellow of the Arnold Arboretum, where she was Principal Investigator of a lab with research projects in phylogenetics, molecular evolution, and plant responses to red and far-red light. In July 2014, she moved to the Australian National Herbarium in CSIRO, where she is using genomic approaches to understand and characterise Australia's biodiversity.
