About me

Hi, I’m Emily! I am a PhD candidate studying evolutionary genetics in the Weber lab at UW-Madison. I am also lucky to be part of the Alaska Stickleback Project, a large eco-evolution and restoration experiment. I’m fascinated by how phenotypic plasticity is shaped by evolution, and its impacts on ecology. I use a fish, threespine stickleback, to investigate evolved variation in plastic mechanisms. I plan to pursue an academic career and will be searching for postdocs upon graduating from UW-Madison.
