Nora is a PhD student in the field of Genetics, Genomics, and Development and is co-advised by Mariana Wolfner. She graduated from the University of Colorado at Boulder in 2014 with a BA in Molecular, Cellular, Developmental Biology and Ecology and Evolutionary Biology. She is interested in the genetic basis of sperm competition in Drosophila, and how selective forces such as sexual conflict can shape the rapid evolutionary dynamics of male seminal fluid proteins.
