Research

research overview

  • I study the relationship between changes in plant physiology and ecology, and insect and arthropod species diversity. I also look for nutritional and allelochemical changes in plants as mechanisms for changes in insect/arthropod diversity. Aside from that, I research pedagogical methods that can improve student engagement and learning in large courses.
