Current Research
My current research studies focus on the phylogeography of forest pathogens. I am involved with developing molecular methods to characterize and identify forest pathogens and endophytes. My research also includes studying the effects of climate change on the pathology and distribution of forest pathogens and their hosts.
Research Interests
My research interests reside in forest pathology.
