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.

威尔逊博士经营着一个多样化但综合的研究项目，包括濒危物种的遗传学，如北方驯鹿和北极熊，以及收获的物种，包括驼鹿和加拿大猞猁。 威尔逊博士还研究了飞鼠和鹿鼠的基因组学，它们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。 威尔逊博士进一步在野生动物法医学的项目中进行研究，例如在全球大象贸易和现在的猛犸象牙贸易等领域建立DNA标记。
