My Research Perspective

The molecular mechanisms underlying behavior in ants constitute an emerging research topic reinforced by swift development of new genomic & genetic tools. I strive to combine advanced molecular methods along-side with maintaining a solid field-setting approach, to preserve my research well-connected to the fluctuating environment.
