About

Flor E. Acevedo is an Assistant Professor at The Pennsylvania State University, USA. Her research primarily focuses on entomology, with recent studies investigating the reproductive effects of grapevine diets on spotted lanternflies, biological control strategies for fruit fly pest management, and the ecological interactions of various insect species with host plants. Additionally, she explores the economic implications of pest infestations in agriculture, and the design of bio-inspired robotic systems based on arthropod characteristics.
