Background
I completed my PhD in 2005 at Uppsala University in
Sweden (my country of birth). My supervisor was Göran Arnqvist. I
have just completed a post-doc at the
Centre for Ecology & Conservation at the University of Exeter in
Cornwall, where I worked primarily with Patricia J Moore, but also
with Allen J Moore and John Hunt on
reproduction and quantitative genetics in cockroaches. I moved to the ANU in
September 2008 on an ARC Post-doctoral Fellowship (2008-2010) where
Michael Jennions will be my academic host. I
am working on sexual selection in crickets and beetles experimentally
testing the claim that sexual signals are designed to signal genetic load.
