Summary
👤
Senior🎓
Top SchoolAlicia Mastretta-yanes is an evolutionary biologist and researcher with 12 years of experience integrating evolutionary processes into biodiversity conservation and management. Her work spans fundamental studies of how topography, climate fluctuations and human management shape genetic structure, applied collaborations with local communities to inform maize breeding and forest management, and development of computational tools to bring genetic data into biodiversity information systems. Currently based in Mexico City, she splits her time between Royal Botanic Gardens, Kew and Mexican research institutions, combining international training (PhD from UEA and research stints in Lausanne and Freiburg) with deep local engagement. Notably, she bridges lab and field insights with software-enabled data integration so evolutionary knowledge is usable by practitioners and policy-makers.
