Research emphasis: parasites of brackish and marine water fishes: biology, life history, and histopathology
Current and planned research projects :
- identification of parasites of estuarine fishes from South Carolina
- philometrids of the southern flounder: histopathology and molecular ecology
- myxosporeans of the spotted seatrout: life history, pathology, and seafood safety
- mechanisms of philometrid maturation and larval release
