Eligible to supervise Masters and PhD - email supervisor to discuss availability.
I am a mathematical ecologist with a particular focus on population biology and epidemiology for wildlife populations. Specifically, I use stochastic modelling to address applied ecological questions in the fields of wildlife management, fisheries, conservation biology, invasion ecology and disease ecology. I have also contributed mathematical models to guide the management of native and feral species, including giant cuttlefish, koalas and feral goats.

I have also contributed mathematical models to guide the management of native and feral species, including giant cuttlefish, koalas and feral goats.
Some current projects include:
- Multi-strain modelling of rabbit haemorrhagic disease (RHD) dynamics
- Stochastic modelling to inform the development of new genome-editing technologies for controlling invasive species populations
- Spatial optimisation of integrated control strategies for native and feral species
- Molecular surveillance and latent-class analysis for detecting emerging marine pest species
- Evidence-based adaptive-management models for the Mount Lofty Ranges biodiversity hotspot
- Modelling the evolutionary impacts of past climate change and human hunting on Australian mammals
