About

Rita Rio is a Professor at West Virginia University, USA. Her research focuses on the symbiotic relationships in tsetse flies, as evidenced by her recent articles exploring bacteriome control, genome sequencing, and the metabolic strategies that facilitate these interactions. She is particularly interested in the roles of microRNAs and quorum sensing in the evolution and transmission dynamics of tsetse fly symbionts.
