I am an Associate Professor in the School of Biological, Earth and Environmental Sciences (BEES) at The University of New South Wales, Sydney, where I lead research into the impact of environmental change on marine animals.

My research was recently published in SCIENCE, follow the links here to read the paper and access the altmetics.

​ I currently hold a Scientia Fellowship at the Univesity of New South Wales.
I have held also held an Australian Research Council Super Science Research Fellowship (2011-2014) and an Australian Research Council Postdoctoral Fellowship (2008-2011). .


 Currently I am focused on the stress biology of corals and this research aims to understand how corals and their microbial symbionts are impacted by a changing environment.

​Some of  my research projects underway include
bacterial symbioses of deep water corals
cell death regulation of coral and tissue regeneration
response of coral to increased sea surface temperatures

conserved bacterial symbioses of coral
bacterial communities of reef fish
 microbial ecology in benthic marine communities
