I am an evolutionary biologist and a Professor at U. C. Davis. (see my lab site here). My research focuses on the origin of novelty (how new processes and functions originate). To study this I focus on sequencing and analyzing genomes of organisms, especially microbes and using phylogenomic analysis

  1. FYI – there's some music that's occasionally auto-playing on this site. Sounds like an arabic ballad… very pretty, but auto play is always annoying. Can't identify the source – it happened when I came direct to this post via feedburner (here's the url in case that helps: http://phylogenomics.blogspot.com/2016/01/should-we-eliminate-all-mosquitoes-from.html?utm_source=feedburner&utm_medium=feed&utm_campaign=Feed%3A+TheTreeOfLife+%28The+Tree+of+Life%29)
