Environmental genomics, molecular surveillance, Biosecurity and invasive species ecology.

Expertise

I specialize in Environmental genomics, surveillance, and developing environmental DNA/RNA-based detection methods for biosecurity surveillance. For the past 10 years he has designed molecular tests to complement how end-users detect and respond against threats across the biosecurity continuum. He explores how eDNA-based techniques can be validated to accurately inform decision-makers on the probability of risk, and how molecular data can provide a triaging framework for everyday biosecurity applications.
