Current Position
Research scientist
Scientific theme leader Ecosystem dynamics, from source to ocean
Research
Phenotypic traits, such as body size, strongly influence the nature and strength of ecological interactions such as predation or competition. In turn, phenotypic evolution in response to ecological interactions may operate on the same time scales as population dynamics. The resulting interplay between ecological change and rapid trait response is called eco-evolutionary feedback loops. These feedback loops could be essential to explain (and predict) the trajectory of complex ecological systems. The objective of my work is to understand whether and how anthropogenic perturbations induce eco-evolutionary feedback loops in food webs.
Current Research Topics
My research concentrates on aquatic food webs disrupted by global warming, exploitation (fisheries) or biological invasions.

Teaching Experience
I was associate professor at the University Pierre et Marie Curie (Paris 6) for nearly 10 years, which involved 200 hours of teaching per year. The list of subjects I taught during this period is available on this link.
M.Sc. and Ph.D. Student supervision
By 2017, I had supervised 7 undergraduate students, 21 graduate students, and 4 Ph,D. students.
Collective Services
From 2009 to 2016, I supervised teaching modules at the master’s level at UPMC. From 2011 to 2015, I acted as the scientific coordinator for the development of the PLANAQUA experimental lakes platform. I also participated in different evaluation committees for master’s and Ph.D. students and for scientific projects.
