Biography
Dino McMahon is a Professor at Institute of Biology zoology ,Free University of Berlin, Germany
Research Interest
My research principally focuses on the ecology and evolution of host-pathogen relationships. Primarily using insects as a model system, I am interested in the diverse selection pressures that act on and between closely associated organisms, particularly the interplay between hosts and pathogens in complex insect societies.
