I am fascinated by rurally located places of destination...My students and I work towards understanding how physical design and planning can ameliorate negative impacts on these rural environments.
I have an interest in conservation induced livelihood change, forest governance, conservation partnerships and Indigenous-led conservation governance. My work seeks to improve the social and ecological outcomes of conservation governance.
My research is designed to better understand the relative risks that environmental stressors may pose to the biota of aquatic and terrestrial ecosystems with the goal of improving scientific and public understanding of those risks.
My main research interests are in organizational identity and reputation and their implications for organizational strategies, sustainability and CSR. My research projects include sustainability and certifications in the Australian wine industry and social enterprise in Tanzania.
Our research is mainly focused on studying ultrafine biopolymeric and synthetic fibres produced by electrostatic spinning techniques. These versatile materials are being exploited in our laboratory for the encapsulation and triggered release of bioactive compounds.
The goal of my research is to improve the life of cancer patients by identifying tools to make better treatment decisions. This can possibly improve several important aspects of the life of a cancer patient, including treatment response, the quality of life, and the overall survival following treatment.
I am interested in the diverse knowledge systems and participatory approaches (citizen science, youth engagement, community-based monitoring, Indigenous guardians, etc.) that contribute to community-led environmental decision making in resource-based and remote communities.
