Bio:
Smith's research focuses on developing methods for analyzing genomic data in an evolutionary context and applies these methods to the study of terrestrial mollusks. Her lab evaluates existing methods and develops novel methods (including machine learning methods) for analyzing genomic data to answer questions about species diversification. They combine field, lab, and computational work to study diversification in terrestrial snails and slugs.
