I employ balanced basic and applied research to unravel the invasion biology and ecology of key invasive pests of agricultural crops in Africa, and using this knowledge towards the development of lower risk pest control options with a strong inclination towards biological solutions. My overall goal is to provide farmers with novel solutions that reduce the heavy reliance on chemical pesticides for crop protection.
