I study adaptive potential of (mainly) lepidopteran to changing environment. My group uses a range of methods from long term data analysis, museomics, pedigree analysis, genomics, immunological assays, and behavioural studies. I am especially interested in animal interactions, particularly how the predator community and predator behaviour shape prey traits, communication and evolution.
