Coastal Oregon Marine Experiment Station

My research focuses on utilizing the transcriptome of copepods as a genomic assay for the prediction of fishery yields.

Phylogeography of the Yelloweye Rockfish along the U.S. West Coast: isolation by distance, potential effects of biogeographic breaks and sites of larval retainage, and deme-level selective adaptation. 

I’m interested in studying the spatial and temporal impacts of behavioral ecology on populations within marine systems.

Assessing Chinook Salmon restoration efforts in the Columbia River Estuary

I am currently working on protease inhibition in Pacific whiting under Dr. DeWitt.

My research centers on population structure and genomic diversity of redband and coastal rainbow trout in the Klamath Basin prior to dam removal.
