Large areas of Australia are experiencing sustained anthropogenic pressure, environmental degradation and biodiversity loss. Professor Fuller is passionate about protecting our ecosystems and biodiversity through the use of interdisciplinary and innovative technological approaches in ecological research, who has a particular interest in using ecoacoustic innovations to monitor changes in ecosystem health and impacts on biodiversity. They are a level 3 Mentoring Postgraduate Supervisor and current student projects in their research group include:

  • Acoustic signalling and subspecies divergence in two Australasian treecreeper species (Climacteris picumnus and Cormobates leucophaea).
  • Temporal and spatial distribution of endangered Pink Cockatoos (Lophochroa leadbeateri leadbeateri) during their breeding season in the Mulga Lands of western Queensland.
  • Innovative acoustic techniques for avian diversity assessments in vineyards.
  • Sensory pollution in Australia: Measuring and understanding the impacts of noise and light pollution on soniferous fauna.

Professor Fuller's achievements in research have been recognised by QUT in 2008 and 2015 when they were awarded Vice-Chancellor’s Performance Awards.
