Keynote Speaker
Jill Hamilton, North Dakota State University
‘Teasing apart the genetic basis of adaptation in a changing climate’ Dr. Hamilton works to understand how genomic and environmental variation interact to influence traits important to climate adaptation. She combines genomic tools with traditional quantitative genetics and field experiments to inform genetic conservation and management strategies in natural and managed plant populations. |
