Mes principaux thèmes de recherche portent sur l'évolution de la diversité génétique dans les populations. Je suis spécialisé dans le développement de méthodes de simulation informatique afin d'étudier les effets combinés de diverses forces évolutives sur la diversité moléculaire, tels que l'apparition de nouvelles mutations, la sélection naturelle, les variations démographiques et la migration.
