About
Dr. Katheryn BUSHLEY 's current research focuses on the ecology and evolutionary biology of insect pathogenic fungi. She utilizes genomic techniques to address questions about what biological and biochemical features adapt these fungi to parasitize and interact with insects, to understand other ecological niches they may occupy while not infecting an insect host, and to investigate patterns of dispersal and intraspecific diversity.
