Présentation

From an initial formation in Molecular Genetics and Physiology, I went during my PhD on Transposable Elements, working on large plant genomes at INRA, France. During my Post-Doc at university of Helsinki, I worked on mechanics, structure and evolution of TEs, in lab then in bioinformatics and NGS. My current research interest in the French National institute for Sustainable Development (IRD) is the Pangenomics modification during speciation/domestication, especially regarding TEs, in various genomes. In this regard, I explore with my team the pangenome in all aspects: creation, modification, graph theory, vizualisation, and so on... In parallel, I spent (and continue to) large efforts on open science, through open source development, open access publication and open data dissemination, as the deputy director of the Open Science mission at IRD.
