Asst. Professor
Entomology and Nematology Department, University of Florida, Florida, United States
Dr. Burgess specializes in veterinary entomology. His common goal is to improve control of arthropods that are damaging to non-human vertebrates, especially in the animal production industry. Pest systems involving animals can be highly variable and complicated, necessitating a multidisciplinary approach to this type of research. Dr. Burgess is mainly focused on two broad areas: 1) Developing new chemical and biological control solutions that are safe for animals. 2)Discovering aspects of the biology of pests that:
May be exploitable for control purposes.
May help determine cycles in economic losses and/or disease transmission.
