CURRICULUM VITAE (January 2014) May-Guri Sæthre

CURRICULUM VITAE (January 2014) May-Guri Sæthre SUMMARY I am working as a senior research scientist/professor at Bioforsk/Norwegian Institute for Agricultural and Environmental Research, Plant Health and Plant Protection Division. Professional background encompasses research, development and teaching within plant protection and plant health, with a good balance between basic and applied research. Focus has been on Integrated Pest Management (IPM) and agricultural entomology for sustainable agro-ecosystems, research on ecology, population dynamics and natural enemies of arthropod pests in Norway and Africa. Developing and promoting the Division s international dimension, establish and enhance collaborative research with international partners, as well as providing technical assistance. Relevant research experience include studies of insect biology and behavior in fruit orchards; the use of sex pheromones as a tool for monitoring distribution and flight activity of insect pests, prognosis and forecasting for extension service and farmers based on trap-catches and degree-day models; use of dynamic models like CLIMEX, as a tool to assess (spatial and temporal distribution) bioclimatic potential for a given species; work on quarantine pests, pest risk assessments. Research conducted in Africa (Nigeria), developing biological control options/ipm tools for management of the African rice gall midge in farmer s fields in West Africa. Present and resent research on vegetables in Benin (IPM in urban and peri-urban horticulture); on banana in Tanzania (banana weevil); and on invasive species & urban landscapes (Norway and Benin). Other experiences include evaluation of national IPM-programme (Nepal); pesticide usage surveys in different crops (Norway); as well as teaching and evaluation committees at the Norwegian University of Life Sciences (UMB). Supervision of PhD (UMB) and MSc students at UMB, École Supérieure d Agriculture d Angers (France), University of Abomey Calavi (Benin), and Sokoine University of Agriculture (Tanzania).
