My interest lies with Applied Entomology, Vector Ecology and Evolution. I have an entomology background, having completed a Masters on the effect of pesticides on dung beetles (2018, Bristol) and an undergraduate dissertation project investigating the quantity of lipid maintained in blow flies. My research interests led me to a PhD on tsetse, a vector of African trypanosome parasites. I am investigating Critical Thermal Limits and Thermal Fertility Limits in several tsetse species.
