Inside the Tangled Bank of Arthropods

 

We unravel the molecular-genetic mechanisms of hybrid dysfunction, herbivory, and endosymbiosis. We use interdisciplinary approaches to study the molecular architecture of these complex traits.

 

 

 

Bryobia research

Details

Very excited to announce that my research proposal on Bryobia mites got granted. I am now hosted at Ghent University, in the lab of Thomas Van Leeuwen.

The grant is a three-year postdoctoral fellowship of FWO and started this October. The focus is on the effect of Wolbachia endosymbionts on the eco-evolutionary dynamics of the Bryobia mite hosts.
