I am a zoologist with broad interest in animal diversity and life history traits. Currently I am studying the evolution of regeneration in planarians. For that I use the MPI collection of living wild planarians that contains species with varied ability to regenerate. I plan to continue using this collection in the future, combined with further field work to understand the evolutionary process that shape planarian diversity.
