Biography
I am head of Invertebrate Pests and Weeds in Forestry, Agriculture and Horticulture and have 20 years’ experience as a project leader and 13 years as leader of Sections /Departments at NIBIO. My research vision is to develop a future “best of” Integrated Pest/Vector Management (IPM/ IVM) that will lead to sustainable food production by effective control of invertebrate pests and minimal use of synthetic chemical pesticides.
More specifically my goals are to:
- Build knowledge on interactions between plants, pests, and beneficials that may be used in innovative pest management strategies
- Develop innovative and effective biocontrol tools
- Integrate new technology with biological control tools to develop an innovative and more precise, effective and economically feasible application
- Provide knowledge to authorities, farmers, companies and the public that will encourage the implementation, use, sale and acceptance of innovative biological control methods and tools in “best of” IPM/IVM.
My research is focused within the field of invertebrate pathology and the use and interaction of entomopathogenic fungi in microbial control of plant pests and vectors. I am working with both main groups of entomopathogenic fungi, namely Hypocreales and Entomophtoromycota.
