My research interest is focused in the use of intraspecific genetic variations in inferring processes that likely influence the distribution of genetic diversity across space. This includes identification of processes, historical and contemporary, that possibly shaped the present spatial patterns of genetic diversity in the marine system and quantification of the contributions of different seascapes in spatial intraspecific genetic variations.
