### Editorial activities and scientific expertise
Regular referee for: *Cladistic, Conservation Biology, Ecography, Ecology Letters, eLife, Evolutionnary Applications, Evolutionary Ecology Research, Forest Ecology and Management,* *Genetics, Heredity, Human Biology, Mitochondrial DNA, Molecular Ecology,* and *Molecular Ecology Resources, New Phytologist, Plant Ecology, PLosOne, Proceedings of the Royal Society London.* Member of the *Peer Community in Evolutionary Biology*.
My strategy is to review with application between 3 and 5 publications per year, which roughly corresponds to my scientific production. In the current scientific context, with a strong increase of publication number, I prefer to do it that way and put quality ahead of quantity!
Expertise in theoretical and applied population genetics, conservation genetics, inference of dispersal, modelling in population genetics, coalescent theory.
