Primarily focused on describing the abundance of individuals within microbial populations using computational models that account for ecological drift and selection.  Specifically, tackling the question of whether we can accurately derive population dynamics through calibration of these models when using time series data.

My research focus on antimicrobial resistances in decentralised wastewater treatment systems. My research especially focusses on how wetland and lab-scale study of diversity of microbial community drives the change of growth rate when exposed to different amoxicillin concentrations.

My research focusses on the design and optimisation of sustainable organic waste treatment. This involves finding solutions that are environmentally friendly and financially viable for remote Scottish islands to help transition towards a low-carbon future.
