We use molecular, morphological, and phylogenetic approaches to study how flowers have changed over the course of evolutionary time. Research projects in the lab cover a diverse set... ![Elena Kramer](/sites/g/files/omnuum6406/files/styles/hwp_4_5__690x865/public/kramerlab/files/elena_kramer-2018.jpg?itok=W50n_mpt) [### Andrea Appleton ](/people/andrea-appleton) Graduate Student I am a botanist and evolutionary biologist interested broadly in the evolution and development of angiosperms and particularly in the evolution of floral morphological diversity.
