Thématique :
I work on the evolutionary ecology of insect host-parasite interactions. I am particularly interested in investigating the effects of genetic and environmental factors on antagonistic coevolution, the evolution of host behaviour manipulation by parasites, the evolution of host behavioral immunity, and the ecological significance of parasites within ecosystems. Most of my recent research has focused on anopheles mosquito vector-malaria parasite associations with the aim of better understanding the consequences of genetic and environmental variations on parasite transmission.
