Research Description
I study the ecology and function of ectomycorrhizal symbiosis between tree roots and soil fungi. This involves some work in the field, studying which fungi are out there and what they are doing, and a lot of experiments in the greenhouse and the lab, investigating how the plants and fungi work together from molecular and physiological perspectives.
