Research Interests Our main research goal is the application of genomic and bioinformatic analyses to the study and conservation of animal biodiversity. Using next-generation sequencing techniques and advanced bioinformatic tools, we are inferring the population structure, kinship relationships, connectivity patterns, and genomic health in some species of great conservation importance, such as the Pyrenean desman. We also use these modern methodologies to study the population divergence and the speciation process in various species complexes of small mammals in order to obtain a better description of our biological diversity, particularly in the Iberian Peninsula. Finally, we develop free software when necessary to implement novel methods related to the analysis of sequences and genotypes. We are therefore working on the following topics:
