I am interested in the interaction between biology and the environment across large environmental gradients; for example, macro-ecological trends in the reproductive ecology of marine invertebrates (Thorson's Paradigm) and temperature-body size relationships. I am particularly interested in the role of phenotypic plasticity in adaptation to environmental variability. During my PhD I focused on developmental plasticity in larval decapods, specifically, variations in instar number during development. Through this research I developed an interest in the arthropod moult cycle and its interaction with the processes of growth and development, especially in larval decapods.
