Expertise:
Willoughby is an expert in the areas of molecular ecology and evolution, conservation genetics and genomics.
Teaching Responsibilities: Wildlife conservation history and law.
Research Interests: Broadly, Willoughby is interested in how wild populations evolve, and in particular how populations evolve in response to changes in their environment.
