Research

I’m a plant pathologist/epidemiologist specializing in sustainable disease management for crops. My research includes disease diagnosis, epidemiology, pathogen characterization, disease forecasting, biocontrol, IPM, host resistance, and cultural methods. I’ve primarily focused on potato diseases but have recently expanded to diseases in wheat, onion, and sugar beet.
