Nelson José de Oliveira Simões (ORCID 0000-0003-3379-3740) is a full professor of physiology in the University of Azores and researcher in the Centro de Biotecnologia dos Açores (CBA). He has been investigating host-parasite interaction using entomopathogenic nematodes and insects has models, particularly the virulence effectors released by the pathogen and their effect in the host immune response. Under this research, the group identified EVs in the nematode secreted products. Currently he is interested in the effect of EVs in immune modulation of insect host. www.uac.pt/cba
