Research Interests
My work articulates around three disciplines: population genetics (population dynamic, adaptation, selection), reproductive biology (evolution of breeding systems) and ecological genetics (community evolution, species composition and quantification, and link between epigenetics and phenotypes).
I am interested in the way environmental processes influence the genetic and epigenetic composition of a given species/population, but also how selection shapes genetic diversity as a whole (population, species, community, ecosystem), and how epigenetics contributes to acclimation potential and future evolution.
