ResearchMy research themes are centered on the effects of processes of evolutionary change on populations. Atypical reproduction modes, demographic or environmental changes are examples of factors that leave a signature at an epigenetic and genetic diversity level. My research’s purpose is to decrypt this signature and to interpret its origin in the goal of better understanding and protecting biodiversity.QCBS studentsMaëva PerezPh.D. Previous students (since 2009)Mathieu ChouteauPostdoctoral fellow Daniel CossiosPostdoctoral fellow Christelle LeungPostdoctoral fellow Roland VergilinoPostdoctoral fellow Laure CauchardPh.D. Frédéric CyrPh.D. Léo DeremiensPh.D. Joelle LafondPh.D. Christelle LeungPh.D. France BeauregardM.Sc.
