RESEARCH FOCUS

My research programme focuses on identifying and characterising cellular and molecular changes in Transfigured beings, with particular focus on interspecies Transfiguration.

With my co-investigators, I am empirically applying a multilevel, multidimensional conceptual model to understand the potential applications of Muggle-developed technology in the investigation of cellular and molecular effects of magical events and phenomena.

I am interested in the ethical considerations in Transfigurative science, particularly as they pertain to organic-to-inorganic Transfiguration and its application in magical law enforcement.
