Summary
👤
Senior🎓
Top SchoolCamiel Doorenweerd is a PhD candidate and molecular biologist with 11 years of experience applying modern DNA techniques to questions in evolutionary biology, phylogeography, and co-evolution, with a particular focus on microlepidoptera. Based at NCB Naturalis, he has built and scaled molecular lab capabilities including a DNA barcoding facility, combining hands-on lab leadership with rigorous quality control and European tender experience. His research blends DNA data with morphology to trace evolutionary patterns between leaf-mining moths and their host plants, and he actively contributes to faunistic surveys in the Meijendel region. A data-science-minded macroevolution researcher, he brings both field collection and computational perspectives to biodiversity questions. Based between the Netherlands and Honolulu, he pairs deep taxonomic knowledge with population-genetics tools to uncover cryptic diversity. Notably, his career bridges museum curation and cutting-edge molecular workflows, enabling large-scale integrative studies of insect evolution.
