Research interests

1. My research is focused on the trait of egg size and the developmental and evolutionary implications of shifts in per-offspring maternal investment. I am currently researching robustness of early segmentation gene expression patterns in Drosophila embryos under different selection pressures for egg size.
2. I am also interested in identifying QTL influencing the trait of egg size. This research is also ongoing.
