About me

I'm Andrea, a Colombian biologist currently based in Norway. My research focuses on analyzing the relationship between pathogenic microorganisms transmitted by ticks and seasonal variation to understand potential outcomes under climate change influence.

Background & Expertise

My work began with tick-borne diseases in Colombia, studying ticks from reptiles, amphibians, cattle, and poultry. I continue researching the systematics of the Amblyomma genus and their associated bacteria, with broad interests in the evolution and ecology of ectoparasites and vector-borne pathogens.
