From Dr. Luikart:
"My general research interests are in conservation biology, population genetics, and ecology. My primary research applies genetics to the conservation of natural and managed populations. My research applies principles and tools of population genetics/omics to fish, wildlife, and a variety of other taxa, including invasive species and parasites that are threatening native ecosystems and regional economies. My lab aims to develop and apply novel field sampling methods, DNA typing techniques, and data analysis approaches to understand landscape connectivity, adaptation to climate change, invasive species control (including pathogens), and the negative effects of inbreeding depression and hybridization on individual fitness and population viability."

Please reach out with any questions regarding this or any Ecology Center Seminar events this semester!

From 3/26 at 4:00 pm to 3/27 at 5:00 pm | Biology & Natural Resources building |
