I am an Envision PhD student interested in understanding evolutionary processes across populations and species, at phenotypic and genotypic levels.

For my PhD, I aim to understand better the causes and consequences of novel adaptation. To do this I am investigating repeated adaptation of Silene uniflora (Sea campion) populations to heavy-metal contaminated soils across the UK.
I aim to understand the role of plasticity in facilitating novel adaptation in S. uniflora, as well as whether hybridisation has intorduced novel variation during novel adaptation. I also aim to investigate the population history of parallel adaptation in S. uniflora. 聽I will integrate both genomic and experimental data to help investigate these topics.

For my Masters dissertation, I worked with researchers from Queen Mary University and Kew Royal Botanic Gardens, to study the genomics of ash tree responses to ash dieback disease. I used signals of convergent evolution between multiple pairs of ash species to detect potential loci associated with resistance to the disease.
