Integrative taxonomy, Interaction Biology and Functional Ecology, Microbial Diversity and Bioprospecting

Zoology and Evolution are the two main keywords describing my research activities. The main topic on which the two terms found a common field are biological interactions and symbiosis. It is possible to identify four periods in my research: (1) Eco-ethology of social hymenoptera; (2) Intracellular symbiosis (bacteria within animal cells, such as Wolbachia); (3) Animal-microorganisms interactions at the community level (not only intracellular relationships); (4) Metagenomic approaches to food sciences.
