    My research focuses on the dynamics of evolutionary processes. I am particularly interested in higher order phenomena, such as the evolution of evolvability, the evolution of the genotype-phenotype map, including modularity, and the evolution of genetic systems. My work also addresses theoretical problems in evolutionary computation.

    I have also worked in conservation on Maui as a part of what I consider to be an evolutionary biologist's professional obligation to preserve the products of evolution that bless Hawai`i so remarkably.
