BIO

My research focuses on Behavioural Ecology and Invasion Biology, studying ecological and evolutionary mechanisms underlying biological invasions. I examine invasive species through dispersal behaviour evolution, predator-prey interactions, and environmental adaptations. As a PostDoc at the Institute of Organismic and Molecular Evolution (iomE), Johannes Gutenberg University Mainz, I also research molecular mechanisms of toxin production and behavioural resistance in Colorado potato beetles.
