Osalen samblike süstemaatika-alastes uuringutes eesmärgiga "parandada" olemasolevat süsteemi – leida liigid, mis on omavahel otseses suguluses ja paigutada nad vastavalt sellele ühte perekonda, samuti leida viise perekondade paremaks piiritlemiseks. Selleks kasutame molekulaarsete tunnusete erinevaid analüüsimeetodeid, kuid hindame paralleelselt ka morfoloogilisi ja keemilisi tunnuseid. Praegu on meie uuringute objektiks samblikud sugukonnast Parmeliaceae, mis on suurim lihheniseerunud seente sugukond u. 80 perekonna ja 2700 liigiga.
Veel tegelen teadustöö materjalide andmebaasistamisega (vt nt Eesti samblike andmebaasi eSamba), interaktiivsete määrajate koostamise ja kasutuselevõtuga ning muude IT-lahendusi nõudvate töödega. Olen TEEME projekti "Digitaalsed taimetargad taskus ja arvutis – loodushariduse edendamine interaktiivsete määrajate kaudu" (2010–2013) juht.
Olen põhitäitja sihtfinantseeritavas teemas "Mükoriisat ja samblikke moodustavate seente ökoloogia, taksonoomia ning biogeograafia spetsiifilised ja integreeritud küsimused" (2008–2013, teema juht U. Kõljalg) ja ETF grandiprojektis 9109 "Lihheniseerunud seente morfoloogia-põhise taksonoomia testimine molekulaarsete markerite abil ning seosed ökoloogiliste uuringutega" (2012–2015, grandi hoidja T. Randlane). Veel olen teadusajakirja "Folia Cryptogamica Estonica" peatoimetaja.
