Daren Card, Ph.D.Hello Mastodon! My #introduction: I am a #postdoctoral #researcher at #Harvard focused on #EvolutionaryGenomics of #adaptation and #ConvergentEvolution in #vertebrates, especially #SquamateReptiles. Currently, I am exploring the #evolution of convergent #LimbReduction in #skink #lizards. Due to the nature of my work, I am also passionate about #NaturalHistoryMuseums and #MuseumGenomics. I grew up in #UpstateNY and did my #PhD at #UnivTexasArlington.
