Field questions. Scientific answers.

Better science.More resilientcorn systems.

We focus on the biology and ecology of corn insect pests and develop integrated pest management (IPM) and insect resistance management (IRM) strategies to improve the sustainability of field and sweet corn production.

From insect biology
to decisions in the field.

Our research connects ecology, population genetics, and molecular biology with applied field experiments to improve the sustainability of field and sweet corn production.
