Mathematician by background, I teach mathematics and mathematics applied to ecology and evolution at ENS. In 2012, I founded SMILE – "Stochastic Models for the Inference of Life Evolution", a research group hosted at CIRB (Collège de France) and IBENS which gathers biologists and mathematicians modeling and inferring evolutionary processes at various scales of time, space and taxonomy, ranging from population genetics to epidemiology and ecology, and from somatic evolution (development, immunity, cancer) to the biology of environmental change (adaptation, conservation genomics) and macro-evolution (diversification of species and of nucleic acid sequences).
 

I dedicate time to the promotion of open access publication (Peer Community In, Mersenne) and to mitigating/adapting to global change through: 1) reducing research carbon emissions (Greencom@CIRB and @IBENS) and 2) designing higher education curricula dedicated to ecological and social transitions.
