Strategies to control insect pest in corn.
About
I started my career as a taxonomist. At CEBIO my research focuses on tools to control damage caused by leafhopper insects and the pathogens they transmit, using mostly tools of molecular biology. In this sense, I lead the team that studies the genome and transcriptome of these insects.
