    Research: 

The primary goal of my research is the isolation and characterization of
biologically active compounds.  In particular, I have been focusing on the
search for new antifungal drugs from microbial sources.  Using chemical
ecology, we can target likely sources of active chemicals.  Once a source
has been identified, the compound is purified through bioassay guided 
fractionation.  The structures of these compounds can then be determined
with analytical techniques such as NMR, MS, IR, and X-Ray Crystallography.
