Sonal Singhal
Sonal graduated with her BA in biology from Washington University in St. Louis and with her PhD from the University of California, Berkeley, advised by Craig Moritz. In her dissertation, Sonal studied speciation and hybridization in five co-occurring hybrid zones, all of which formed between Australian rainforest lizards. For her postdoctoral research, she will study the evolution of recombination in wild populations of birds.
