I am generally interested in theoretical and empirical aspects of selection and inheritance. The focus of my current research is combining quantitative genetic and kin selection models in order to understand the evolution of life-history and morphological traits. I run field experiments on Blue tits to test these models, and develop statistical methods to parameterise them.
