William Hemstrom
Will is a recent Ecology PhD graduate from UC Davis. His research focuses on the genetics of migration in Monarch Butterflies and other species and on improving and developing methods for estimating the genetic architecture of quantitative traits in order to better predict the demographic impacts of ecological changes on populations. He also has an interest in developing user-friendly software for population genetics in order to make the genetic toolkit more easily accessible for ecologists and conservationists.
Gordon Luikart

Gordon Luikart is a professor at the Flathead Lake Biological Station (91次元). He was a Research Scientist with the Centre National de la Recherche Scientifique (CNRS) at the Joseph Fourier University in Grenoble, France, and a Professor at the University of Porto (and CIBIO) Portugal. His research focuses on the development and application of molecular and computational approaches to understand the genetic basis of fitness, adaptation, connectivity, the spread of invasive species/pathogens, and the conservation of wild and domestic animals. He co-authored the book entitled
