Vanessa Carina Bieker
About
I am interested in population genomics and evolutionary genetics, especially by using ancient or historical samples from herbarium and museum collections. By understanding the past, we may be able to make better predictions of the future of e.g. how species adapt to climate warming or which species are most likely to become invasive when they get introduced to new enviornments.
