Présentation

I am Professor at the University Grenoble Alpes (France), teaching evolutionary ecology and phylogenetics. I got a PhD from the University of Montpellier, France. My main research interests are in the evolutionary processes leading to population diversification and speciation. Most projects combine population genetics and phylogenomic analyses together with ecological, biochemical and behavioral studies to test hypotheses about evolutionary processes or adaptation to multiple constraints, mainly in the Alps.
