Dylan Corner
I work for the Queensland Department of Agriculture and Fisheries as a Nematologist and Soil Ecologist. My PhD was on the taxonomy and systematics of marine parasitic flatworms, and I have transferred the skills developed throughout my PhD to the study of plant parasitic nematodes. My work currently focuses on molecular diagnostics, species identification, and management of nematodes affecting agricultural and horticultural crops. I have a nuanced appreciation for the vital role of taxonomy in modern science, and hope to contribute where I can.
