We are a diverse team of scientists working to understand the World’s most biodiverse region.

Our research comprises a diverse range of projects under the broad banner of ​plant systematics, from alpha taxonomy to the study of rapid diversification in the Andes. You can find us in the Shirley C. Tucker Herbarium, home to ca. 400k plant specimens that motivate our research.
