Research interests

My research focuses on the eco-evolutionary dynamics of plant–insect interactions and how they are shaped by abiotic and biotic factors, including environmental change, plant inter- and intraspecific diversity, and variation in herbivore and pollinator communities.

In my current position, I work on developing application strategies to optimize the use of entomopathogenic nematodes as sustainable pest control agents. I am also involved in projects investigating the potential of herbivore-induced plant volatiles (HIPVs) as cues for the automated detection of herbivorous pests in agricultural ecosystems.
