I am an environmental scientist interested in understanding how agricultural landscapes and farming practices shape ecological interactions across biological and spatial scales. My research focuses on the relationships among plants, plant pathogens, arthropods and biodiversity, with the aim of identifying the ecological processes that sustain resilient, multifunctional agroecosystems.​Using an interdisciplinary approach that combines laboratory and greenhouse experiments, field ecology and landscape-scale analyses, I investigate how landscape structure and agricultural management influence multitrophic interactions, disease dynamics, biodiversity and ecosystem functioning.

My research integrates experimental ecology, disease ecology and spatial ecology to understand ecological processes ranging from individual organisms to agricultural landscapes.​I have conducted research across a wide range of agroecosystems in Canada, Mexico, Malaysia, Bangladesh, Spain and, currently, Sweden, collaborating with international research groups working on agroecology, biodiversity conservation and sustainable agriculture.

I am currently a postdoctoral researcher at the Swedish University of Agricultural Sciences (SLU) in Uppsala, where I investigate how diversified cropping systems enhance biodiversity, ecosystem functioning and agricultural multifunctionality.

During my postdoctoral research at the Museo Nacional de Ciencias Naturales (MNCN-CSIC), I contributed to the development of national biodiversity monitoring protocols that support the scientific evaluation of Spain’s Common Agricultural Policy for the Ministry of Agriculture, Fisheries and Food (MAPA).

My long-term research aims to understand how landscape structure and agricultural diversification shape biodiversity and multitrophic interactions in order to design more resilient, multifunctional and sustainable agroecosystems under global environmental change.
