Research interests

I'm a botanist who uses DNA sequencing (RADseq, Target Enrichment, Plastome sequencing) to study the evolution, systematics and biogeography of plants. I am mainly working on the largely (sub)tropical family Rutaceae (Citrus or Rue family) as well as south-east Asian and Pacific (in particular the Hawaiian Islands) biogeography. Please find some press releases of recent findings below.
