Unité(s) de recherche
I am a research scientist at CNRS since 2003. My main research interest lies in understanding the genetic and functional diversity of marine picocyanobacteria and the consequences on their adaptation/acclimation capacity to various environmental factors
MAJOR CURRENT RESEARCH PROJECTS
- ANR SEASONING (2025-29, PI: S. Chaffron)
Community metabolic modelling of marine microbial plankton interactions in space and time - FEDER Porteurs d’Océans
Sensibilisation à la biodiversité marine et aux enjeux en lien avec les changements en cours - ANR TaxCy (2024-28, PI: L Garczarek)
An integrative taxonomy to unravel the links between ecology and evolution in a-cyanobacteria, a major component of aquatic microbial communities - PPR FUTURE-OBS (2023-29; coord: E. Thiebaut/F. Not; partner WP2):
Augmented observatory for coastal socio-ecosystems - Tara Europa/TREC (2023-26; partner):
A multi-year seasonal sampling along a land-to-sea transect - BIOcean5D (2022-26 ; coord: E. Heard; Horizon Europe, partner)
Marine biodiversity assessment and prediction across spatial and human scales - EMO-BON (2021-31; EMBRC-ERIC, partner)
European Marin Omics - Biodiversity Observatory Network - ANR EFFICACY (2020-25, PI: L Garczarek and F Partensky)
An integrative taxonomy to unravel the links between ecology and evolution in a-cyanobacteria, a major component of aquatic microbial communities - ANR TONGA (2019-23, role: Local coordinator, PI: Cécile Giueu and Sophie Bonnet))
