Exploring the evolution of photosynthesis and stress response

My research focuses on the evolution of plant photosynthesis, from genes and gene regulation to plant anatomy and life history. My work varies in form and scale: from the genomics of single species with rare photosynthetic systems to comparisons of anatomy and physiology across vascular plants. The common thread throughout my research is the use of extant plant diversity and comparative methods to reconstruct past evolutionary history. 

The "omics" of photosynthesis

Untangling the genomics and gene regulation underlying photosynthetic adaptations.

Comparative anatomy

Describing the anatomy that supports different photosynthetic modes across species.

Phylogenomics

Developing and applying new methods to reconstruct the histories of lineages and their traits.
