Pablo Urbaneja-Bernat

Pablo Urbaneja-Bernat is a Ramón y Cajal researcher at Universitat Jaume I, Spain, where he works in the Plant Immunity and Biochemistry Group. His research focuses on biological control, insect nutritional ecology, and multitrophic plant–insect interactions in agroecosystems. He is particularly interested in how plant-derived food resources, including nectar, honeydew and guttation, shape the behavior, fitness and efficacy of natural enemies such as parasitoids and predators. His work aims to integrate ecological knowledge into sustainable pest management strategies, reducing reliance on chemical pesticides and improving the resilience of agricultural systems.
