Interests: Fruit Crop Entomology/Pollination Ecology research
Education:
Ph.D. Biology – Utah State University, Logan, UT. 2004
Ability to conduct scientific research. Ecole Pratique des Hautes Etudes, Paris, France. 1998
Maîtrise. Neurobiology – Université Paul Sabatier, Toulouse, France. 1997
B.S. Cell Biology and Physiology – Universitédes Sciences, Montpellier, France. 1996
Research Interests:
My major research interest is the study of natural chemicals that mediate interactions between organisms and how these chemical messages affect insect behaviors, with the ultimate goal to develop practical applications for semiochemicals for integration into pest management programs while sustaining and enhancing pollination services.
I joined the Department of Entomology at the University of Wisconsin in October 2012. My research program focuses on 1) developing and refining effective, economical, and environmentally sound insect pest management (IPM) strategies; 2) determining the importance of pollinators and developing strategies for conserving and enhancing pollination services for fruit crops in Wisconsin.
