Funded Activity Summary

The evolution of female multiple mating: genetic benefits and indirect genetic effects. This work will yield results at the forefront of evolutionary biology, thereby contributing to Australia's reputation as a country where excellent and original research is conducted. A greater understanding of the processes determining offspring viability, paternity success, and the acquisition of genetic quality will also benefit animal breeding and conservation biology. My research will work towards a better understanding of an ecologically important Australian native coastal species which supports commercial fisheries. Australian science will further benefit from the training of young scientists and from collaborations with international researchers that will promote excellence in Australian research.
