Research summary
AI-generated

This publication record appears to blend two distinct lines of work: one on insect sensory biology and navigation, particularly color and polarized-light vision in beetles and ants and how these animals use visual cues to orient themselves, and another on the immune and genetic response to respiratory syncytial virus (RSV) infection in aging cotton rats, plus a paper on genetic variants linked to thyroid cancer. Because these topics are quite different, the listed publications may represent multiple contributing authors or research areas rather than a single coherent research program, so prospective students should verify which specific project(s) this person leads.

Publication output grew from a low base in 2017 to a peak around 2022, then has fluctuated, with continued but variable activity through 2024-2026.
