The Mediterranean Institute of Biodiversity and Marine and Continental Ecology
IMBE's research is structured around 5 transversal thematic axis and 8 research teams
IMBE organizes its operational facilities around 5 technical departments
Training is, of course, the courses offered at the University (L, M, D) but also training through research (internships).
The dissemination of our scientific results is at the heart of our mission: it enables us to share and make research advances accessible to a wider audience. In addition to publications in specialist journals, the IMBE deploys a wide range of resources to popularise knowledge and make it understandable and attractive to a wide range of audiences. Through concrete actions and innovative tools, we are committed to bringing science closer to everyone, in order to establish an ongoing dialogue between science, research and the general public, especially young people.
My research interests lie in the field of restoration ecology, with a particular focus on plant communities and population dynamics. During my thesis, I am interested in how to use nature-based solutions to restore Mediterranean grassland ecosystems.
Initially, I am interested in the effects of restoring microhabitats and re-establishing a dominant species on several ecological compartments of the ecosystem.
Secondly, I am studying another restoration method that takes into account a pool of local species. For this, 3 types of seedling are tested, all of local origin with different localities, costs, compositions and ecological impacts.
Finally, I am focusing on the potential phenotypic and adaptive differentiations between two local origins of two dominant species in our ecosystem.
