BIOGRAFIA
L’attività di ricerca in campo entomologico riguarda principalmente lo studio morfo-funzionale di vari aspetti della biologia, in particolare della riproduzione e dello sviluppo, principalmente in insetti di interesse sanitario, quali Diptera Psychodidae, Culicidae, Ceratopogonidae (Leptoconops) e Glossinidae, ma anche Phasmida e Plecoptera.
Dal 2015 è Accademico Ordinario dell’Accademia Nazionale Italiana di Entomologia in cui è stata eletta Vice-Presidente dal novembre 2019.

The entomological research activity mainly focuses on the study of different morpho-functional aspects of biology, in particular reproduction and development, in insects of medical interest, such as: Diptera Psychodidae, Culicidae, Ceratopogonidae (Leptoconops) e Glossinidae, and also in Phasmida e Plecoptera.
Since 2015 she has been a member of the Italian Academy of Entomology where she has been elected Vice-President since 2019.
