Gerard Talavera, PhD Why some insects migrate? How migratory behaviour has evolved? How species disperse? What geographical ranges temporary inhabit? I combine population genetics, phylogeography, genomics, ecology, niche modelling and fieldwork to study insect migration and dispersal: the evolution of migration, the ecology of long-range movements, tracking migratory routes and mapping genetic diversity across space. I develop my research at the Institute of Evolutionary Biology (CSIC-UPF) in Barcelona, as a Marie Curie Researcher, and I am also associated to the Museum of Comparative Zoology (MCZ), Harvard University, USA.
