My research principally focuses on the ecology and evolution of host-pathogen relationships. Primarily using insects as a model system, I am interested in the diverse selection pressures that act on and between closely associated organisms, particularly the interplay between hosts and pathogens in complex insect societies.

Enquiries concerning potential PhD and postdoctoral positions are welcome.
