About

Agricultural Scientist with an MSc in Ecology from the University of Amsterdam, currently working in the field of Plant Health, as part of the Plant Health and Pesticide Residues (PLANTS) Unit of EFSA. I am involved in the identification and ranking of emerging pests with the aim to support the EU decision-making on the prevention of the introduction and spread of such organisms in the EU territory. I have been trained in plant protection practices against pests of crops, as well as in research for the biological control of insect pests. For one year, I have also worked in the media sector, covering news of interest for farmers in Greece.
