HiLIFE Webinar: Sasha Mikheyev

​​​Coevolution while you wait: the role of host switches in driving parasite evolution

Sasha was born in Russia, but lived in the USA since his teenage years, ultimately moving to Japan after graduate school. Now, he is about to receive his Australian citizenship. Over the past decade he has worked on a wide variety of study systems, ranging from bees to snakes, with a general theme of understanding the molecular origin of adaptations. He is particularly fond of looking at rapid evolutionary events we can see in our lifetime, such as biological invasions, or various kinds of pests.
