Areas of expertise
Evolution and Development, developmental biology, professional development, inclusive pedagogy
Research interests
Evolution and development of the digestive tract in the vertebrate lineage. I study patterning (how different organs are ordered) and morphogenesis (how organs take on their final shape and function) of the digestive tract in vertebrate embryos and how the digestive tract evolved in the vertebrate lineage over 450 million years.
Teaching interests
Cellular Foundations of Life (BIO 104), Illustrated Organism (BIO 345), Developmental Biology (BIO 354), Topics in Organismal, Physiological Biology (BIO 488) and Australia Term Abroad (TAB)
