Biological Sciences: Cornell University Contact Information Rieveschl Hall 711H Email morehonn@ucmail.uc.edu Research InterestsReproduction is a social interface that intertwines the fates of males and females. I study the traits important to this evolutionary interface, from elaborate courtship displays and strong mate preferences to post-copulatory interactions between male and female reproductive proteins. I am interested in understanding 1) the co-evolutionary dynamics that generate diversity in reproductive traits, 2) how natural and sexual selection interact to produce different male and female phenotypes, and 3) how trait ...
