In 2013 he was distinguished lecturer on Organismic and Evolutionary Biology at Harvard University.[3] His research has included work on the species concept central to evolutionary biology, along with hybridization and the process of speciation.[4]

He was awarded the Darwin-Wallace Medal by the Linnean Society of London in 2008.[5][6]

His wife, Hopi Hoekstra, an evolutionary biologist, became dean of Harvard Faculty of Arts and Sciences in August 2023.[7]
