2012-2013

This year I will be on sabbatical in the lab of Alan Cooper at the Australian Centre for Ancient DNA at the University of Adelaide, performing paleogenomic analyses on ancient arctic plant seeds.

Arctic 2012: Last summer was spent collecting arctic plants in the mountains and valleys of Auyuittuq National Park on Baffin Island, Nunavut, Canada.

For a closer view, please visit the interactive site for the 2008 collecting expedition along the Noatak River in the Brooks Range of Alaska.
