I am a mycologist and plant pathologist. My research interests are the systematics of fungi, especially those that cause diseases of plants and insects.
Currently I have two jobs, one as curator of the Queensland Plant Pathology Herbarium, Department of Agriculture and Fisheries as well as a professor (mycology) at the University of Southern Queensland.
