PhD candidate in School of Biological Sciences, Ecology and Evolutionary Biology discipline. I work with ancient DNA found in cave sediment from across Australia. I am interested in the preservation of DNA and how the surrounding environment influence the ability for DNA to be preserved. I am also interested in improving our knowledge of past biodiversity and environments to inform conservation strategies for species and climate modelling.
