Kathy Darragh started as an assistant professor in 2024 at Indiana University, Bloomington, USA. She previously spent four years as a postdoc at the University of California, Davis and received her PhD from the University of Cambridge, UK in 2019. Kathy's work focuses on the intersection between chemical ecology and evolutionary biology, bridging genetics, behavior, and molecular biology. The current focus of her work is how biosynthetic pathways and enzymes evolve to produce the chemical diversity observed in insects.
