An #Introduction:
I'm the #Curator of #Herpetology at the #NaturalHistoryMuseum of #Denmark, and #AsstProf of #Vertebrate #Zoology at the University of Copenhagen.
I work in evolutionary and systematic herpetology, working on a variety of topics including #museomics, #macroevolution, #convergence, #phylogeography, #speciation, #systematics, and #taxonomy. I mostly work on the #amphibians and #reptiles of #Madagascar. #Miniaturisation is my jam.
