Joost works on the interface of biology and culture. He is studying the biocontrol potential of the Asian weaver ant (Oecophylla smaragdina). This ant also serves as a culturally valued food in Northeastern Thailand. Hence, Joost is investigating a dual-production system that is ecologically and socially sustainable.
