I'm interested in tropical herpetology, specifically the anole lizards. I
am currently working on the phylogenetic relationships of a certain group
of anoles, and hope to dedicate my life to the systematics and ecology of
these anoles.

I am doing a PhD project on the detection and identification of African
trypanosomes in tse-tse flies by molecular hybridisation and polymerase
chain reaction. The PCR approach is evaluated on experimentally infected
flies and on flies coming from endemic zones of sleeping sickness in Congo
and Ivory Coast.
