My research is focused on understanding and sustaining biological diversity, particularly through the study of bees and other pollinators. My work spans pollinator ecology, crop pollination, and biodiversity conservation, emphasizing ecological relationships shaped by evolutionary history, functional traits, and agricultural landscapes. With expertise in entomology, evolutionary systematics, and biogeography, I integrate systematics and applied conservation into my research. My global experience, including the Global South and high Arctic, complements my work in sustainable agriculture and insect-plant interactions. I have led or participated in numerous high-impact projects funded by prestigious organizations such as the EU Horizon program, the Carlsberg Foundation, and national funding bodies. Through teaching, student supervision, and scientific outreach, I also strive to bridge the gap between ecological science and practical applications for sustainable agriculture and biodiversity conservation.
