PeerJ Author & Reviewer

Summary

My research focuses on plant-herbivore and predator-prey interactions, with an emphasis on the feeding behaviour, chemical ecology, and nutrition of marine invertebrates. I am interested in marine ecological and evolutionary processes at various levels of organization and have studied organisms ranging from microalgae to fishes.
