Lindell Bromham
Regular biography
Lindell Bromham is a fellow at The Australian National University's Research School of Biology. Her research focuses on how patterns of trait evolution on phylogenies reveal macroevolutionary mechanisms, particularly for traits that reduce lineage diversification. She also investigates how patterns and rates of molecular evolution are influenced by species characteristics, environment, and macroevolutionary processes. Bromham's work includes analyzing DNA sequence data to reconstruct the construction of species assemblages over time. She has been involved in several research projects, including the Origins of a biodiversity hotspot flora and exploring evolvability in a changing environment. She teaches BIOL3206 (Evolution of Diversity) and the Vice Chancellor's course VCUG3001 (Unravelling Complexity).
