Administrative Responsibilities
Convener of the Genetics Degree Board / Coordinator of Level 2 Molecular Ecology & Evolutionary Genetics / Coordinator of the Quercus Molecular Facility.

Research Interests
My research interests centre on the areas of biodiversity, population and conservation genetics, and aquaculture.  I am particularly interested in the development and application of modern molecular methodologies such as microsatellite DNA profiling, AFLP, in addition to RFLP and sequencing analysis of both mtDNA and nuclear genes, to gain further understanding on population genetic structure, evolutionary patterns and life history variation of organisms.  More...
