What We Do
The Weiblen lab studies botany, plant-insect interactions, molecular phylogenetics, population genetics, ecology and taxonomy. Phylogenetic theory, genomic data, and computation have invigorated the search for answers to broad evolutionary problems that have captivated life scientists since Darwin. We combine fieldwork in tropical and temperate ecosystems with DNA technology and the study of museum specimens. Studies of tropical forest dynamics, community ecology, and coevolution in fig pollination are topics of long-term research. Recent interests include Cannabis genetics, biotic responses to climate change, floristics, and biodiversity conservation.
Why Our Website Sucks
The website was developed in 2001 and has resisted technological "upgrades" until now. No fancy side bars, animations or other gimmicks. No black box "content management system" stands between you and raw html. Brutalism in web design is coming back into fashion as a reaction to the frivolity of more recent trends. The appearance and content of the site are not the official position of the University of Minnesota. They are products of academic freedom.
