About

After completing my degrees in Zoology (BSc Hons), Pollution and Environmental Control (MSc) and ecological invertebrate pest control and behaviour (PhD), I joined Kingston Universityin 1996 as a lecturer. I have been at various stages course leader, field leader, deputy head of school, acting head of school and head of department.

Research interests: invertebrate behaviour and low temperature biology of invertebrates.

Teaching responsibilities: include environmental and organism biology, evolution, research methods and biological statistics.
