Research Interests My research focuses on the ecology and toxin production of cyanobacterial
harmful algal bloom (HAB) species. This includes environmental factors
that control cyanobacterial growth and toxin production, genetic regulation
of toxicity, development of molecular methods for the detection of HAB
species and the genetic diversity of cyanobacterial bloom communities.
