About me

Noah Snyder-Mackler uses molecular genetic techniques to probe the dynamic interaction between the social environment and the genome with the aim of understanding the fitness consequences of behavioral variation. Broadly, his lab investigates the causes and consequences of variation in the social environment from the molecular to the organismal levels. His work involves two complementary study systems, which allow him to address questions central to human health, aging, and evolutionary biology.
