I am currently engaged in work that spans three very different aspects of current biology: insecticide resistance, insect mimicry, and bacterial virulence (both to insects and to man). I use state-of-the art molecular techniques, such as cloning, BAC finger-printing, and EST sequencing, to facilitate advances in each of these important fields. My study organisms include Drosophila, several butterfly species, and the bacterial pathogen Photorhabdus. I am a member of the evolution research group.
My research has received substantial media coverage by a number of organizations and in a variety of formats. Mostly recently, our lab was featured in a short Nature video on the genetic control of butterfly mimicry.
