Group-associated Postdoc

I am an evolutionary biologist passionate about the study of flowering plants. My research focuses on understanding how floral traits and reproductive systems evolve, and how these processes shape their ecology. I enjoy exploring the diverse reproductive strategies of plants — from the flexibility of their systems to the consequences these dynamics have for conservation and for the evolution of floral morpho-functional traits. To address these questions, I combine multiple approaches, including reproductive biology, phylogenetics, community ecology, transcriptomics, phylogeography, and population genetics.  Within the group, I contribute to experiments investigating how reproductive and functional strategies, together with various abiotic factors, shape the phenotypic development and evolutionary adaptations of cliff-dwelling plants.
