Autoren-Porträt von Patrik Nosil
Patrik Nosil is an Assistant Professor at the University of Colorado, Boulder. He research focuses on how new species form. His initial work on how new species of insects might form as they adapt to feeding on different types of host plants received wide-recognition, for example earning him the Dobzhansky Prize from the Society for the Study of Evolution. More recently, he has been employing a combination of both theoretical and empirical approaches to study thetypes of genetic changes that occur in the genome as new species are formed.
