Dr. Pingault focuses on the management of arthropod pests impacting humans, animals or plants. Her research investigates the molecular and epigenomic mechanisms—such as DNA methylation, long non-coding RNAs (lncRNAs), and histone modifications—that enable arthropod pests to adapt to control measures, while exploring innovative strategies to disrupt molecular crosstalk within pathogen–vector–host interactions. By integrating advanced multi-omics techniques with computational biology, Dr. Pingault aims to develop cutting-edge, sustainable solutions for pest and vector management. Her key areas of expertise include Arthropod Genomics, Epigenomics (methylation, lncRNA, histone modifications), Wheat–Insect Interactions, Bioinformatics, and Molecular Biology.
