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.
With a dual background in Molecular and Cellular Biology and Microbial Ecology, most of my research has focused on plant-microorganism interactions, whether they are beneficial to plants or induce defence reactions.
Since joining the IMBE, I have mainly been studying the diversity of symbiotic microorganisms in the Marseilles milkvetch, a rare and protected species that is emblematic of the Calanques National Park. This work has been a key element in the ecological restoration of astragalus populations (LIFE Habitats Calanques project).
