Louis Patrick Clemens Boumans
Background
MSc Biology July 2007, University of Amsterdam, NL.
Before my biology studies, I worked in the field of linguistics at several Dutch universities (1993-2007), and later on as a secretary in biodiversity informatics projects at the University of Amsterdam (2007-2010).
February 2010, I started as a PhD candidate at NHM, UiO.
Ongoing and planned research projects
Speciation in aquatic insects
Supervisors: Arild Johnsen, Herman de Jong (Amsterdam) and John E. Brittain.
This project addresses selected topics in speciation mechanisms in aquatic insects, with some emphasis on Nordic species. The approach is a phylogeographic one using morphological characteristics as well as molecular methods.
