Beard lichens (Usnea) have been my main object of research since Master's studies. I started my research on lichens with estimating the levels of air pollution in Tartu. I am interested in knowing what exactly is going on and how to diminish chaos in genus Usnea. How to photograph characters in order to make them visible and understandable for not specialists is also a challenge.
Besides participating in ecological research projects I have been conducting lichen inventories in Estonian nature protection areas and teaching varoius lichen cources.
