Our research in evolutionary biology includes phylogenetics and adaptation of organisms to the environment. We aim to understand how genetic and plastic mechanisms shape adaptation to natural and anthropogenic environmental change, how evolutionary processes shape population genomics, and evolutionary interactions between animals, plants and pathogens. We use a wide range of approaches including population genomic and sequencing methodologies, experimental evolution and field experiments.
In addition to funding from the faculty, we have been supported by a large number of grants from SNF, EU, Carlsbergfund, Villumfund, among others.
