- Organism–environment interactions: response of species to ocean change; e.g., ocean acidification, increased temperature
- Cellular and organismal physiology
- Transcriptomics
- Coastal ecological processes
My research focuses on organism-environment interactions in coastal marine ecosystems using time-series observational data combined with field and laboratory experiments to predict the response of species to ocean change.
- Currently, my research investigates the transcriptomic response of Antarctic sea urchin larvae to the individual and interacting conditions of future ocean change- including ocean acidification and increased temperature.
