Bio & Research

I am a permanent CNRS researcher working at Ecobio Unit (Rennes University, France). My research focuses on adaptive responses of ectotherms to environmental and anthropic constraints. I have a special interest in adaptation to thermal stress in arthropods (e.g. drosophila flies). I use various approaches, ranging from ecophysiology to evolutionary and molecular biology, in order to gain an integrated and multi-scale understanding of stress and multi-stress responses from genes to individual responses.
