Zainteresowania badawcze

Prowadzę badania dotyczące muchówek sklasyfikowanych w obrębie rodzin Muscidae oraz Fanniidae, ze szczególnym uwzględnieniem gatunków istotnych dla celów medyczno-sądowych. Podjęte tematy badawcze obejmują morfologię stadiów preimaginalnych, metody taksonomii molekularnej, badanie tempa rozwoju wybranych gatunków. Jednocześnie informacje z zakresu morfologii owadów oraz dane molekularne wykorzystuję do rekonstrukcji filogenezy w obrębie rodziny Muscidae.
