Duarte Toubarro (orcid.org/0000-0003-2025-9696) is a Researcher at Biotechnology Centre of Azores (CBA), University of Azores. He has been working on virulence factors released by entomopathogenic nematodes (Heterorhabditis and Steinernema). Her current research focus in the identification of insecticidal proteins and in the understanding of the genes underlying traits that are important for insecticidal efficacy. The recent discovery of extracelular vesicles (EVs) secreted by nematodes has revealed a new paradigm in the study of host–parasite relationships.
