Personal profile
Biography
My research interests are diverse and focus on biodiversity and conservation issues associated with human impacts such as climate change, fisheries, and plastic pollution. I have a particular research focus on sharks and other threatened species. I am Deputy Chair of the NSW Fisheries Scientific Committee, a member of the Sydney Institute of Marine Science Scientific Advisory Committee, and a member of the Australian Marine Sciences Association. I lead the Marine Ecology Group at Macquarie University.
