Research
The Krishnan Lab focuses on estimating the risks of pesticide exposures on insects, particularly species of conservation concern. The lab evaluates the toxicity and risk of pesticides at different levels of biological organization (molecular to organismal/population-level) and undertakes interspecies extrapolation.
