Doxory?

lakmiseiru has decided Which research and professor sounds more interesting? (ignore school location)

Blergh, this question was too long. Shortening and trying again.

I picked something else

http://faculty.washington.edu/toby/ - "My general area of research interest is the genetic basis of adaptive trait evolution in natural populations, especially as it relates to the origin of new species. I use a combination of laboratory, greenhouse/growth chamber, and field experiments to study adaptation in plants and animals. My academic background is primarily in molecular biology, but I have a lifelong interest in organismal biology. I collaborate with ecologists, physiologists, and evolutionary biologists in many of my research projects. Graduate students are welcome to participate in an ongoing project, or to develop an entirely new project."

Any brilliant advice would certainly be appreciated. Shameless advocacy is often good, too.

your buttons - they be too big!

http://www.eebweb.arizona.edu/faculty/nachman/ - "Michael Nachman and the members of his lab study population, evolutionary, and ecological genetics and genomics. Most work is on mammals with particular emphasis on mice and humans. Research is focused on understanding the forces that shape genetic variation in natural populations. A first major area of research is aimed at uncovering the extent to which natural selection can be detected in patterns of DNA sequence variation, and in particular, in understanding the joint effects of selection and recombination in determining the distribution of genetic variation. A second area of interest is the genetics of speciation. This includes studies to understand the origin and consequences of specific mutations that may limit gene flow between populations and closely related species. A third main area of interest is ecological genetics, aimed at uncovering the genetic basis of traits that are known to be important ecologically. This includes studies on the genetic basis of adaptive melanism in mice."

(Ouch, it'd be easier to read if doxory didn't make all the text huge... :-)

I like growing things, though the other one sounds like it's got more potential somehow. I'm not sure, does reading their papers shed better light on this?

If you make a stupid choice because a website tells you to, it's your own damn fault.
