- The development of MS-based screens for nematode pheromone analysis.
- The comparative analysis of nematode pheromones.
- The isolation, structure elucidation and total synthesis of nematode derived small molecule signals.
- Their functional characterization in intra- and interspecies as well as cross-kingdom interactions.
