Research Interests
Insect physiologist interested in
host/parasite interactions and rearing of lepidopteran hosts and
their parasites, and diapause physiology. Toxicologist interested
in insect growth regulators that selectively kill target pests
without harming beneficial arthropods, especially in aquatic
systems.
