Research interest
Research focused on Herbivore and Drosophilidae, with related work in Gene, Lineage (genetic), Detoxification (alternative medicine). Notable publications include 'Herbivory increases diversification across insect clades', 'Evolution of herbivory in Drosophilidae linked to loss of behaviors, antennal responses, odorant receptors, and ancestral diet', and 'Genes Involved in the Evolution of Herbivory by a Leaf-Mining, Drosophilid Fly'.
