Boris is an ecologist mostly dealing with ecological, evolutionary and biogeographic parasitology using arthropod ectoparasites (mostly fleas) and their mammalian hosts as model associations. Boris graduated from Moscow State University of the former Soviet Union and then (after the collapse of the communist regime) moved to Israel. There, he expanded his scientific interests to ecology of host-parasite interactions (he himself has no idea how and why this happened). Boris collaborates with many researchers from all continents (except Antarctica). At present, he is a Full Professor in the Ben-Gurion University of the Negev.
