Simone is Professor of Genetics and Reproduction and is interested in all aspects of evolution, genetics and reproduction.

Michael Scott – Affiliated Postdoctoral Research Fellow
Mike uses theoretical and empirical approaches to study the consequences of haploid selection for mating system evolution and beyond.

Johnny is interested in the role of germ line-soma interactions for organismal ageing using zebrafish as a model.

Daniel is interested in identifying genes under haploid gametic selection.

Alice is looking for signs of haploid selection in the genome of zebrafish.

Marco is studying the role of haploid selection in the interaction between male and female gametes.

Jayme is interested in mechansisms that enable the maintenance of genetic variation in genes expressed at the haploid stage.


Berrit studies the effects of environmental conditions experienced by males on small RNA profiles in sperm.

Anastasia studies haploid selection in mammals including humans

Justin is studying the effects of nutritional fibre on gut microbiome in the context of inflammation and ageing
