Short CV
Fabrizio Lisi, PhD, is a Marie Skłodowska-Curie Postdoctoral Fellow at the University of Catania (Italy) and Zhejiang University (China). His research focuses on the biological control of invasive pests and the ecotoxicological assessment of pesticides on key natural enemies, particularly Hymenoptera parasitoids, to improve pesticide selectivity and support sustainable crop protection.
Fabrizio obtained his PhD in Agricultural, Food and Environmental Science in 2025, working on the management of the Spotted Wing Drosophila, Drosophila suzukii, through parasitoid integration and (bio)pesticide selectivity within IPM programs. During his PhD, he spent 12 months at the University of California, Berkeley (USA) as a Fulbright Visiting Student Researcher.
He serves as Associate Editor of Entomologia Generalis (e-ISSN 2363-7102), a reviewer for 12 international peer-reviewed journals, and was appointed Teaching Assistant in General and Applied Entomology at the University of Catania in 2025. Fabrizio is also a member of the Italian Society of Entomology (SEI) and the International Organization for Biological Control (IOBC).
