Environments are heterogeneous in time and space, and I use natural populations of butterflies
​to study the ecological and evolutionary consequences of environmental heterogeneity.
​
Specifically, my work focuses on how spatial and temporal variation in host plant availability
affects the evolution of ecological specialisation in these herbivorous insects.

​I am also interested in phenotypic plasticity, and its role in adaptation and diversification. 

I received my M.Sc. from Leiden University (NL) and a Ph.D. from the University of Cambridge (UK). After a postdoctoral fellowships at the Instituto Gulbenkian de Ciência (PT), the University of Helsinki (FI), and the University of Zurich (CH), I now work at the University of Lisbon (PT).
