研究领域

Dr. Dupont joined the Department of Biology in 2003 as a full-time lecturer. Her focus is on undergraduate teaching and she has several publications on the use of podcasts to enhance student learning. Her previous research (1999–2002) at the Institute of Veterinary, Animal and Biomedical Sciences, Massey University, New Zealand, focussed on development of a defined subunit vaccine against Johne’s disease, an intestinal chronic wasting disease in many animal species caused by the bacterium Mycobacterium avium subspecies paratuberculosis, Her postdoctoral research (2002-2003) at the Ontario Veterinary College, Department of Pathobiology, University of Guelph, focussed on development of a vaccine against Rhodococcus equi infection in foals. R. equi is a pathogen responsible for economically significant losses to the horse racing industry.
