个人简介

Experience Associate Professor Queensland University of Technology 2011 – Present Research Areas: Sustainable food production and microbial ecology. The Invertebrate Microbiology group conducts original research in the biology, ecology and commercial applications of microorganisms in sustainable food production. Current projects include: – The diversity and ecology of microbes in the insect microbiome – Mathematical models of pathogen dynamics and their role in evolution – Development, production and formulation of new biopesticides for the grains industry (funded by GRDC) We collaborate with leading Australian and international researchers, and work with commercial partners and agricultural industries to develop and use biopesticides in integrated pest management strategies. Associate Professor Charles Sturt University 2010 – 2011 Research on pest management strategies and commercial development and registration of biopesticides. Principal Scientist Queensland Primary Industries and Fisheries 1999 – 2010 Team leader in development of biopesticides and their integration into farming systems, resulting in registration and commercial production of three new baculovirus products, and proof of concept for fungal pathogens to control sucking pests (aphids, mirids, whitefly). I developed new adjuvants for microbial insecticides (registered in 2010). I led research on pathogens for control of diamondback moth, thrips, Rutherglen bug, pentatomids, mango and sweet potato weevils, and painted apple moth (a pest incursion in New Zealand). I advised on production and quality control systems for a new company producing microbial insecticides. I led strategic and project planning for government and researchers in Australia and Vietnam and developed and led the diagnostics program for the CRC for Plant Biosecurity. With the Queensland Government International Collaborations Unit I helped to develop a government funding program for collaborative research with India and China. Post-doctoral Researcher Edinburgh University 1996 – 1999 Led international research in pest management and silviculture in tropical hardwood plantations in Sri Lanka and developed guidelines for mahogany plantation establishment and management. Involved extended in-country work in Sri Lanka, for the UK Department of International Development (DFID, formerly ODA). Post-doctoral Researcher Oxford University 1994 – 1996 Led original research on pest management and silviculture in tropical hardwood plantations. Involved extensive work in Ghana, Costa Rica, Sri Lanka, Trinidad and Solomon Islands for the UK DFID. Scientific Officer Natural Environment Research Council 1989 – 1994 Conducted original research on risk assessment and pathology of genetically modified (GM) baculoviruses in insects under a European Union Framework project. Conducted original research on molecular and biological characterisation of baculoviruses and the host range and cross infection patterns of new viral isolates of insect pests. Research Assistant National Autonomous University of Nicaragua, Leon 1988 – 1989 Conducted original research and extension on insect pathology and microbial control in integrated pest management in cotton and food crops, including identification of new microbial control agents. Consultant Entomologist Novo Industria/s March 1987 – December 1988 (1 year 10 months) Quality control for Bacillus thuringiensis (Bt).
