Ph. D., Duke University, 1982
Postdoctoral Fellow, Univ. of Texas, 1982-83
In my lab, most research focuses on inter-specific interactions, particularly symbiotic interactions. We are interested in how specific symbiotic interactions affect larger scale ecological and evolutionary processes. A variety of systems from vertebrates to bacteria are utilized, with an emphasis on plants and arthropods. |
