Biography

Trine Bilde is a Professor and Centre Director at the Department of Biology at Aarhus University. She leads the Centre for Ecological Genetics, focusing on the relationship between genetic diversity and the functional responses of insects in changing environments. Her research interests include evolutionary ecology and genetics, particularly concerning group living, cooperation, and mating systems in social species, alongside the genomic aspects of sociality and inbreeding. Bilde's work aims to understand the population genetic consequences of the observed declines in insect diversity and abundance, as well as their implications for ecological services such as pollination and pest control. She has been involved in significant research projects, including one supported by the Novo Nordisk Foundation, aimed at unraveling the roles of genetic variation in beneficial arthropods within agro-ecosystems. Bilde is a noted expert in behavioral biology and ethology, and has contributed rich knowledge in the fields of evolutionary ecology and population biology.
