Research interests:
Fungal ecology in the context of gut health and food protection and production.
1. The role of fungi in the healthy human gut, including interactions between different species of gut fungi, interactions with bacteria, and interactions with the human host.
2. The potential for fungal probiotics to limit fungal disease in humans.
3. Cross-talk between a toxigenic fungus (Fusarium graminearum) and its plant host (wheat) during disease development.
