Dr. Amanda de la Torre has dedicated her entire research career to the study of the genetics and genomics of forest trees, with emphasis on spruces and pines. Her research in comparative genomics, molecular evolution, and local adaptation to climate has been published in top journals such as PNAS, Molecular Biology and Evolution, and New Phytologist. She obtained her Ph.D. from the University of British Columbia in Vancouver, Canada, and later worked as Postdoctoral Researcher at Umea University in Sweden and the University of California, Davis in the USA. She is currently an Assistant Professor in forest genomics at the Northern Arizona University and the Director of the Forest Genomics Lab.
