Lily R. Lewis joined the lab as the new ph.D. student to work on bryophyte population genetics and conservation in Chile
Rafael Medina (Universidad Autonoma de Madrid) is visiting the lab to work on Orthotrichum phylogeny and evolution
Highlights of the lab in the UCONN Magazine
The Storrs L. OLson bryological library is now on-line.
Congratulations to Jessica for receiving awards from the American Microscopical Society, The International Association of Bryologists and the Botanical Society of America.

Welcome to the Goffinet Lab! 
The research interests in this lab cross organismal lines with projects focusing on liverworts, hornworts, mosses or lichen-forming fungi and span the fields of floristics and phylogeography, systematics and phylogeny, genome evolution and developmental biology.
