Sergio L he bbbacteria that live inside insects. A major focus is Wolbachia, a bacterium found inside many insects' cells, and how it interacts with and influences its insect hosts (such as fruit flies) at the molecular level. The work spans the genetics, proteins, and immune interactions that shape these bacteria-insect partnerships.
