What We Are

Welcome to the Invasive Plant Ecology and Evolution group at Macquarie University.

Our research is mainly focussed on the ecology, environmental impacts and evolutionary biology of invasive plants. Invasive species represent ideal, albeit unfortunate, systems to address basic research questions in these fields.

Applying various research approaches, our work transverses various spatial and temporal scales, from understanding the microevolutionary dynamics of introduced populations to interpreting the biogeography of plant taxa.
