Biography
I am an evolutionary biologist studying the origin and maintenance of biological diversity. I did my undergrad in UNAM under the supervision of Cesar Dominguez, where I studied the evolutionary ecology of seed predation in tropical tree species. Afterwards I completed a PhD with Mark Rausher on the evolution of self-incompatibility and sex allocation at Duke University. I did a postdoc with Spencer Barrett at the University of Toronto where I continued studying plant reproductive strategies including heterostyly, heteranthery and clonal reproduction. From 2008 to 2022, I led my lab on plant evolution at the University of Stirling, Scotland. In 2022, I moved my lab to Uppsala University, Sweden where I continue using ecological and genomic tools to study natural selection, speciation, buzz pollination, and the evolution of adaptive diversity in plants.
