He was the program director of population biology at the National Science Foundation in 1989–1990, a senior Fulbright fellow in New Z ealand in 2000–2001, and a senior Fulbright specialist at the University of Western Australia in 2013–2014. He was elected a fellow of the American Association for the Advancement of Science in 1987, was elected president of the American Genetic Association in 1997, and has served on the editorial boards of several international journals (e.g., Evolution, Conservation Genetics, Molecular Ecology, and Conservation Biology)

She develops mathematical and statistical methods to address questions in population genetics, epigenetics, and genomics. She is the scientific manager of the 200 Mammals Project, an international collaboration that is using comparative genomics to identify genomic variants that underlie human disease.

Beyond the theoretical aspects of his research, outcomes from many studies have direct applications to helping address critical conservation issues in a variety of threatened and endangered mammals. He is also interested in studying micro-evolutionary processes that shape genetic variation and evolutionary trajectories as well as landscape genetics and genomics.

From page 89... ...
Much of his current research concerns the statistical analysis of next-generation sequencing data in population genetics. Many of the methods he has developed have been used extensively by other researchers, including the phylogeny-based methods for detecting positive selection implemented in phylogenetic analysis by maximum likelihood, the methods for inferring demographic histories implemented in the "Isolation with Migration" (IM)
