Research
I am a tropical plant community ecologist working at the interface of plant-microbial dynamics.
My research integrates large-scale field, greenhouse, and laboratory experiments with molecular techniques to address questions fundamental to understanding the distribution and maintenance of biodiversity in tropical forests and beyond.
