Dapper Lab

Mississippi State University

The Dapper Lab uses evolutionary genetic approaches to understand the origin and maintenance of genetic variation.  A major focus of the lab group is the evolution of reproductive traits - from behavior to cellular pathways. Our research employs both theoretical and empirical approaches, ideally in concert with one another.
