Research Profiles
My Links
I joined FABI in November 2013 as a doctoral student in the Tree Protection Cooperative Program (TPCP) under the supervision of Prof. Michael J. Wingfield.
Currently, I am a senior postdoctoral fellow with Prof. Almuth Hammerbacher. My primary research focuses are (1) screening for disease-tolerant cultivars of commercial tree species, (2) plant, soil and insect-gut microbiome, and (3) Phytophthora diversity.
