ABOUT ME

I am a post-doctoral researcher at CNRS – UMR GEOLAB working on the structure of ecological networks and environmental gradients in wetlands.

My research addresses fundamental questions at the interface of community ecology, macroecology and conservation biology. I aim to understand and predict the effects of global change on biodiversity and ecosystems, with a view to leveraging this knowledge for effective conservation and management. I investigate these questions by combining open-access databases on environmental, trait, trophic interaction, and phylogenetic characteristics, data from the field or from experiments, and statistical modelings to integrate and synthesize data across various spatial and temporal scales. Most of this work focuses on islands or island-like ecosystems (e.g. lakes).
