I am interested in the population genetics and phylogeny of African rodents. My areas of expertise include using chromosomal data, barcoding and phylogenetic data. All of this is used to understand characters that unbderpin differences and similarities among African rodents.
An initiative led by the Center for Sustainability Transitions (CST) at Stellenbosch University, in partnership with the South African National Biodiversity Institute (SANBI) and made possible through the JWO research grant.
The development of the BII depends on the input of experts across the continent to adequately represent African biodiversity. The index will be presented in a usable form for decision making. Join our network to get involved or to stay updated as the project progresses.
