I work on fish and freshwater ecosystems: I aim at understanding patterns of biodiversity in rivers and its consequences on ecosystem functioning. I specifically focus on intraspecific biodiversity. My interests are diverse and include host-parasite interactions, functional ecology, evolutionary ecology, ecosystem functioning and dynamics, the rules of community assembly, the impacts of global changes, information use in ecology, phenotypic plasticity and population genetics. I use molecular, empirical and experimental approaches.
Some news from the fishes
February 2018: The new born prototype of the future aquatron.
We are building an amazing mesocosm platform of 144 connected tanks for freshwater ecology in Moulis. Some exciting experiments to come! |
August 2017: Camille and Eglantine are setting in situ cages to test for experimental infection in dace.
Several of these cages will be deployed in different micro-habitats and surveyed regularly. Some news in a few months! |
June 2017: Allan began a two-step eco-evo dynamics experiment in the European minnow. This picture illustrates the larvae that we introduced in step 2 of the experiment.
We now have to be patient to test how ecology can affect phenotypic evolution! |
