I seek to understand how the environment interacts with evolving phenotypes to determine where species can live, and the consequences of such interaction over different organizational levels of nature (i.e. individuals' phenotypes, population abundance, species' range size, community richness, etc). Lately, I have been focusing on using that understanding for developing a new approach for forecasting species' vulnerability to climate change. Most of my work focuses on lizards, but I enjoy working with almost any organism. I use an array of approaches including field and laboratory studies, reviews, museum data collection, geographic modelling and videogames. Finally, I teach courses on Project Design, The Scientific Method in Comparative Biology, Scientific Writing, Phylogenetic Statistics, and Functional Biogeography.
