I am an evolutionary ecologist interested in how ecological conditions and evolutionary history shape behavioural and morphological diversity, particularly in birds.
My research combines phylogenetic comparative methods and evidence synthesis to investigate ecogeographical rules, correlated evolution among traits, and the generality and limits of biological patterns across species and environments. I am also interested in statistical methodology, metascience, and open science, particularly in how biological knowledge can be evaluated, integrated, and made more reliable.
