Welcome
Here you can explore my research and publications, all the content is centred on understanding how ecological interactions across biological and spatial scales shape resilient and sustainable agroecosystems.
Landscape ecology across
biological scales
From disease ecology and multitrophic interactions
to biodiversity conservation
Agricultural landscapes are shaped by a complex network of interactions among plants, pathogens, arthropods and biodiversity, which ultimately influence ecosystem functioning and the sustainability of food production. Understanding how these interactions respond to landscape structure, agricultural management and global environmental change is essential for designing resilient agroecosystems where biodiversity conservation and agricultural production can coexist.
My research combines landscape ecology, disease ecology and experimental ecology to explore these processes across scales, from laboratory and greenhouse experiments to landscape-level analyses.
My small contribution is to bring ecological theory and applied research together. Through my work, I hope to contribute knowledge and scientific evidence that can support biodiversity conservation, more sustainable agriculture and evidence-based environmental management. Over the years, each project, finding and experience has helped me shape my own research path.
But agriculture never stands still. Policies change the way we farm, from the plant protection products available to the varieties we grow and when we sow them, while new pests and environmental challenges continue to emerge. And behind all of this are people — farmers, field technicians and other stakeholders whose decisions, knowledge and experience make agriculture possible every day. As researchers, our role is to keep asking questions and generating the scientific evidence needed to understand these changes and help those working in agriculture respond to them. For me, this is what keeps science moving forward: new questions, new collaborations and always something new to learn.
