My Files
My Links
As a biologist with a background in microbiology and biochemistry, it is difficult for me to pinpoint precisely what my interests are. However, over the years I have discovered that some research areas interest me more than others. Such areas include the mechanisms involved in the evolution of organisms, the dynamics of speciation and the phylobiogeography of taxa. More recently, I have developed an interest in the application of machine learning as a tool in to assist us in our research. I am therefore involved in research projects of diverse nature, all motivated by “the pleasure of finding things out”*.
My current research projects and activities can be grouped under the following headings:
- Taxonomy and phylogeny of Ganoderma species from Africa,
- Phylogeography and evolution of Armillaria species,
- Genomics and genome evolution of plant pathogenic fungi and bacteria, and
- Machine learning and Artificial Intelligence: With a focus on their application in biological research.
*From: “The best short works of Richard P. Feynman. The pleasure of finding things out”.
Teaching
Past and current undergraduate courses:
(2016-2023) GTS261: Genetics Variation and Evolution
(2014) GTS354: Genome Evolution & Phylogenetics
(2009 - 2013) GTS352: Genomes
Phylogenetic Workshops
I am responsible for developing, coordinating and presenting advanced phylogenetics workshops. These workshops focus on theoretical and applied aspects of methods used in inferring phylogenetic relationships amongst organisms. The workshops was initiated after the realisation that most researchers have limited experience in the practical application of evolutionary models and tree building algorithms as well as the execution of computer software used for the analyses. My major objective with the workshops is to provide "hands on" experience in the use of databases and the range of software currently available for evolutionary biologists and systematicists.
