My field of study focuses on the genetic analysis of mosquitoes and other vertebrates, including humans, as well as the identification of the species that mosquitoes bite, with the aim of describing clustering patterns and animal movement to improve the prediction and prevention of mosquito-borne diseases.

In parallel, I support the genetic study of populations of different species present in high-altitude ponds, contributing to the study of the genetic diversity and structure of their populations.

PROJECTS

The great heterogeneity in individual behavior as well as between different groups translates into a variability in human-mosquito interaction, and therefore in a variability in the risk of disease transmission. This relationship not only depends on the density of mosquitoes and people in an area but on many other factors.
E4Warning is an holistic approach to improve our understanding of the interplay between humans, mosquitoes, reservoir species and the environment for a better disease intelligence capable of anticipating and identifying mosquito-borne diseases epidemic risk and outbreaks.
