I am Emerita Professor of Plant Pathology at the University of Adelaide, and former Deputy Head of the School of Agriculture, Food and Wine.My main area of research is fungal and bacterial diseases of grapevines and horticultural and pulse crops. Recent research has been supported by Wine Australia and the Department of Agriculture, Fisheries and Forestry.I am a Fellow and Past-President of the Australasian Plant Pathology Society (President 2013-15).I served as the Chair of the University of Adelaide's Self-Assessment Team which led the successful application for the SAGE (Science in Australia Gender Equity) Athena SWAN Bronze award (conferred in February 2020). I also served as the Faculty of Sciences Deputy Dean for Gender, Equity and Diversity 2013-2018.

My research focuses on the diagnosis, epidemiology and management of fungal and bacterial diseases of grapevines, horticultural crops and pulses. I also led a recent project on Phytophthora diseases of natural ecosystems in South Australia.

Recent research was supported by Wine Australia (formerly Grape and Wine Research and Development Corporation) and the Department of Agriculture, Fisheries and Forestry. I also contributed to the Plant Biosecurity Cooperative Research Centre. In recent years, my research has also been supported by the ARC and I led research projects on Fungal contaminants and their impact on wine quality, and Diagnosis and management of Eutypa dieback in the Cooperative Research Centre for Viticulture (2003-2006) with support from the GWRDC.

Research collaborators include Dr Katja Hogendoorn (University of Adelaide), Drs Jenny Davidson and Mark Sosnowski (South Australian Research and Development Institute), Dr Katherine Evans (Tasmanian Institute of Agriculture and University of Tasmania) and Dr Bob Emmett (formerly Department of Environment and Primary Industry Victoria).
