Hello! My name is Francisco Javier Peris Felipo. I was born in 1983 in Valencia, Spain. I’m a biologist with a PhD in Entomology and over a decade of experience in biodiversity, regenerative agriculture, agroecosystems, taxonomy, ecology, and pest control.
Currently, I work as a Nature Specialist at Syngenta Group, aligning nature strategies with evolving regulatory frameworks. I’m passionate about advancing biodiversity, soil health, and regenerative agriculture. I enjoy building collaborative networks that drive meaningful impact across regions and value chains. As part of this commitment, I led LivinGro®, a program focused on protecting biodiversity and enhancing soil health while ensuring agricultural productivity.
My scientific work centers on natural enemies, particularly parasitoid wasps (Braconidae: Alysiinae and Opiinae). I’ve published 122 scientific works and described 118 new species. I’ve also completed 37 research stays at Research Centers worldwide. I actively collaborate with museums and universities on projects related to biodiversity, agriculture, taxonomy, ecology, and evolution.
In my free time, I enjoy traveling, playing sports, spending time with friends, and continuing my entomological research.
I’m proud to contribute to a more nature-positive future through innovation, collaboration, and purpose-driven leadership.
