Widespread and rapid environmental change poses one of the biggest threats to biodiversity globally. Determining which factors shape the evolutionary responses of species and populations to climate change, habitat destruction, and other stressors is critical for conservation. Anusha studies the processes that structure genetic diversity across landscapes and how this may impact species vulnerability to environmental change. Her work involves building and applying tools for understanding patterns of genomic variation, connectivity, and adaptation. As part of the Landscape Genomics Team for the California Conservation Genomics Project, Anusha is developing analysis pipelines to help inform the conservation of hundreds of species across the state.
