Biologist (Comahue National University) and Doctor in Agronomy (University of Buenos Aires)
Es investigadora independiente del CONICET. Sus intereses de investigación se centran en la ecología de invasión de insectos forestales, con foco en entender los patrones y mecanismos poblacionales involucrados durante las fases del proceso de la invasión de especies dañinas, a distintas escalas espaciales. Entre sus modelos de estudio actuales se encuentran los escarabajos de la corteza y de ambrosia (Coleoptera: Scolytinae y Platypodinae) y la avispa de los pinos, Sirex noctilio (Hymenoptera: Siricidae). Es editora asociada de la revista científica NeoBiota, participa del comité editorial de la revista de divulgación Presencia, y es delegada del grupo de trabajo "7.03.12 - Alien Invasive Species and International Trade" de la red internacional IUFRO desde 2019.
She is a researcher at CONICET (National Council of Scientific and Technical Research). Her research interest focuses on describing patterns and understanding populations mechanisms involved during the stages of the invasion of forest insects, at different spatial scales. She is currently studying the population dynamics and invasion ecology of bark and ambrosia beetles (Coleoptera: Scolytinae and Platypodinae), and of the exotic woodwasp, Sirex noctilio (Hymenoptera: Siricidae). She is subject editor of the scientific jounal NeoBiota and deputy of IUFRO's working party "7.03.12 - Alien Invasive Species and International Trade".
