I am biologist with emphasis on entomology. I am interested in the study of blood-feeding insects, those involved in the transmission of diseases and common ectoparasites especially from the order Diptera, their taxonomy and ecology. I am particularly interested in studying their interactions with other species, besides their population dynamics (temporal and spatial) and its relation with environmental variations. Currently, I am beginning the study of interactions between vectors and vertebrates in areas with potential presence of arboviruses through the analysis of antagonistic networks.
