Learn about the work of Kyle Benowitz, PhD, which is focused within the field of evolutionary genetics with a primary interest in using genomics to study the evolution of complex social traits in insects.

Examples of his work include studying how environmental variables drive group selection at the molecular level in a fungus beetle and how differences in the gene expressions underpin variations in parental care for the young in different insects.
