Dr. Wilson operates a diverse yet integrated research program including the genetics of Species-at-Risk such as the boreal caribou and polar bear and harvested species including moose and Canadian lynx. Dr. Wilson also studies the genomics of flying squirrels and deer mice that are influenced in their range distributions by climate change that may lead to potential hybridization and provide a system to search for genes undergoing rapid adaptive change. Dr. Wilson further maintaines research in Wildlife Forensic Science in projects such as setting up DNA markers in areas such as the global trade of elephant and now mammoth ivory.

威尔逊博士负责开展多元化而综合的研究项目，包括北方驯鹿和北极熊等濒危物种的遗传学以及驼鹿和加拿大山猫等收获物种的遗传学。 威尔逊博士还研究了飞鼠和鹿鼠的基因组学，这些飞鼠和鹿鼠的分布范围受到气候变化的影响，这可能导致潜在的杂交，并提供了一个系统来寻找经历快速适应性变化的基因。 Wilson 博士进一步致力于野生动物法医学研究，例如在大象和猛犸象牙的全球贸易等领域建立 DNA 标记。
