About me
I am interested in how we apply ecological knowledge to agricultural systems to guide practices in becoming more sustainable. In particular, I am interested in plant-soil interactions and how microbes can help plants overcome adverse conditions. I was recently awarded a Formas funded mobility grant to explore the role of soil microbes in boosting the immune system of plants against herbivore pests.
