Overview

C. Giovanni Galizia is affiliated with the University of Konstanz in Germany and conducts research primarily in the fields of Agricultural and Biological Sciences, Neuroscience, and Biochemistry, Genetics, and Molecular Biology. Their work encompasses a range of topics centered around neurobiology, insect physiology, ecology, and behavior.

The scientist's publication portfolio features research in specialized subfields such as Ecology, Evolution, Behavior and Systematics, Cellular and Molecular Neuroscience, Genetics, and Insect Science. Their studies have contributed to understanding mechanisms in endocrine and autonomic systems as well.

Main topics addressed in their research include:

  • Neurobiology and Insect Physiology Research
  • Insect and Arachnid Ecology and Behavior
  • Plant and Animal Studies
  • Insect and Pesticide Research
  • Animal Behavior and Reproduction
  • Circadian Rhythm and Melatonin
  • Insect Utilization and Effects

The frequent publication venues for C. Giovanni Galizia include:

  • Journal of Experimental Biology
  • bioRxiv (Cold Spring Harbor Laboratory)
  • Zenodo (CERN European Organization for Nuclear Research)
  • Cell and Tissue Research
  • Insects

Significant recent papers authored or co-authored by Galizia demonstrate a focus on olfactory and behavioral research in insects and arachnids:

  • Olfactory coding in honeybees, 2021, Cell and Tissue Research
  • Olfactory Strategies in the Defensive Behaviour of Insects, 2022, Insects
  • Regularly occurring bouts of retinal movements suggest an REM sleep-like state in jumping spiders, 2022, Proceedings of the National Academy of Sciences
  • Social modulation of individual preferences in cockroaches, 2020, iScience
  • Coding of odour and space in the hemimetabolous insect Periplaneta americana, 2020, Journal of Experimental Biology

Frequent collaborators include Morgane Nouvian, Marco Paoli, Daniela C. Rößler, Kris Kim, and Massimo De Agrò, with whom Galizia has co-authored multiple publications. This indicates a network of scientific cooperation predominantly in areas related to insect neurobiology and behavior.
