I’m a Plant Pathologist researching the biology and management of honey fungus in UK gardens. My previous specialist area was the interactions between wheat pests and pathogens. In 2017, I launched the nationwide Honey Fungus Hunt – asking members of the public to record sightings of honey fungus mushrooms. The survey received 170 responses, of which 113 were confirmed to be honey fungus. The results from the survey can be found on the honey fungus hunt project page and are being used to inform the direction of future research.

I am also project lead for the RHS in the HOMED (Holistic Management of Emerging forest pests & Diseases) EU Horizon 2020 project.

I also support RHS Gardening Advice, diagnosing plant diseases and providing advice on managing diseases on gardens.
