Personal profile
Research interests
Dr Oh is an evolutionary ecologist with keen interests in genetics and genomics, local adaptation, and conservation biology. He applies concepts from evolutionary biology and population genetics along with modern whole-genome sequencing and bioinformatic analyses to address problems in invasive species management, wildlife conservation, and development of new biocontrol techniques, in both vertebrate and invertebrate animal systems.
