My research interest lies in the interface between mycology and evolutionary biology. I study fungal life history traits and explore general evolutionary questions such as natural selection operating at multiple levels in the biological hierarchy, the causes and consequences of symbioses and switches in reproductive mode. In particular, with funding from VR and the European Research Council (ERC) I was in recent years given the opportunity to dive deep into the causes and evolutionary consequences of meiotic drive. The lab also study fungi from extreme environments, and their genomic adaptations.
