Nikolaos
Kouloussis
I am a research entomologist specializing in insect and mite biology, ecology, behaviour and management, with extensive experience in both academic and applied entomology. My work bridges fundamental science and practical solutions for global agricultural challenges.
Research Expertise Development
Developed core expertise through visiting scientist positions (including as a Fulbright Scholar) at UC Davis (California, USA), under Dr. James R. Carey, a founding figure in insect biodemography. I also worked as a visiting scientist at Imperial College at Silwood Park (Ascot, UK) under Dr. Michael Hassel and Charles Godfray.
Selected Global Advisory Roles
- FAO/IAEA Consultant: Provided technical expertise to international agencies on pest control and policy.
- International Fruit Fly Board (2006–present): Elected representative for Greece, advising on invasive species management.
- Invited Speaker & Advisor:
- RUDN University, Moscow (2018): Lectured on insect ecology under climate change.
- Charles Darwin Foundation (2019): Advised on conservation strategies against Philornis downsi, an existential threat to Galapagos finches.
