Dr. John Stoffolano is a Professor at the University of Massachusetts Amherst, specializing in entomology with a focus on Diptera (true flies). His research spans insect physiology, neuroendocrinology, microbial transmission, and feeding behavior. Key affiliations include the Department of Biology at Princeton University (postdoctoral) and institutions like University of Connecticut, Cornell University, and State University of New York at Oneonta through his educational background.
- Education:
- Post Doctorate in Biology, Princeton University (1970-71)
- Ph.D. in Entomology, University of Connecticut (1970)
- M.S. in Entomology, Cornell University (1967)
- B.S. in Biology, State University of New York at Oneonta (1962)
His work primarily investigates physiological and behavioral mechanisms in model species such as Musca domestica, Phormia regina, and Anastrepha ludens, with a focus on salivary glands, crop muscle dynamics, and microbial interactions. Recent studies include viral impacts on insect physiology and chitosan applications for pest management.
