Dr Erin Macartney

Adjunct Associate Lecturer
Science
School of Biological, Earth & Environmental Sciences

Broad research interests are in phenotypic plasticity with a focus on life-history strategies, particularly reproductive investment and transgenerational effects. 

I conduct empirical research primarily using Diptera as well as quantitative literature reviews and meta-analyses.
