Biodiversity

My research aims to study the impact of agricultural practices on non-target organisms present in these environments, in particular spiders.
Why spiders? Firstly, because they are magnificent, and secondly, because they are excellent bioindicators of environments and changes therein, as well as potential alternatives, along with other groups of arthropods, to phytosanitary treatments.
This archnological expertise has also led me to take part in other biodiversity study projects in other environments, such as small Mediterranean islands (NGO PIM), forests (HoliSoils) and mountains (Orchamp).

My teaching activities mainly concern cell biology and animal physiology.
