- Areas of Interest:
My research focusses on invertebrate ecology in the agri-environment and primarily the impacts of farming practice and land management on the ecosystem services of pest control and pollination underpinning crop production.

Specific areas of interest include:
- Insect pollination ecology and crop production
- Ecological intensification of smallholder farming systems
- Effects of agricultural practices on pests and natural enemies
- Trophic influences of soil fertility management in agricultural systems
- Cereal aphid ecology
