I am a freshwater biologist with a particular interest in the taxonomy and ecology of aquatic fauna. In my research I combine ecological theory and environmental topics (for instance nutrient and chemical pollution of fresh waters) and focus on vulnerable taxonomic groups such as organisms that cannot be seen with the naked eye but that drive the bulk of ecosystem processes on our planet. For example, freshwater quality (i.e. the health of groundwater, lakes or rivers) is maintained by a community composed of mostly tiny organisms.

I currently deliver Undergraduate (BSc) and Masters (MSc) level education in zoology, biology, study skills and statistics, with a specific focus on aquatic biology, animal biology, ecology, conservation, climate change and sustainability. I teach on these programmes:

Zoology

Biological Sciences

Biomedical Sciences

MSc by Research Ecology, Evolution and Behaviour
