Research interests:
My M.S. thesis investigates fungal biodiversity in the historic huts of Antarctica. A small number of huts were constructed by turn of the century explorers; Scott and Shackleton, and left largely untouched for the last 90 years. Many Ascomycetes and Deuteromycetes have been discovered in deterioration of the wood and existing saprophytically on items inside the huts.
