Mark Kirkpatrick
I'm interested in the evolution of sex determination, genome structure, species ranges, mate choice, and quantitative traits.

Jared Cole
I am interested in using bioinformatic and population genetic approaches to study genome evolution, sexual antagonism, and sex chromosomes. My current research focuses on sex-differential selection in humans and how representation into genetic studies impacts inference. I am also a member of the Harpak Lab.

Karim Primov
I received my Bachelor’s degree in Marine and Atmospheric Science at the University of Miami, majoring in Marine Science and Biology and minoring in chemistry. While at UM, I was involved in undergraduate research under Dr. Peter Glynn. I studied the population genetic structure of massive Porites corals at the University of Guam Marine Laboratory under Dr. David Combosch. My major research interests include population genetics, invertebrate zoology, and evolutionary biology.

Matthew Ming
Matt is a graduate student in the Ecology, Evolution, and Behavior program joint between the Harpak Lab and the Kirkpatrick Lab. He received his B.A. in Biology at Cornell University. He is broadly interested in population genetics, evolution, and computational biology. Outside the lab, Matt enjoys rock climbing, playing board games, and watching movies.
