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.
Olá! I am a field and theoretical biologist working on behavioural ecology and biodiversity conservation trough a one-health approach (i.e., recognition that human health is interconnected to animal and environmental health). My work specifically focuses on the dynamic relationships between anthropogenic pressures (such as deforestation), population dynamics, animal social interactions and the emergence and spread of infectious diseases. I apply a vast range of methods, including field experiments and advanced mathematical modelling (e.g., network analysis, individual-based modelling, landscape analysis).
Broadly, my ongoing projects focus on the socio-ecological drivers of behavioral flexibility, population dynamics and pathogen transmission in fragmented forests in the tropics. This includes: (i) the influence of habitat fragmentation and loss on animal population dynamics, (ii) the vulnerability of neotropical primates to disease outbreaks (e.g., yellow fever); iii) the influence of sociality on pathogen transmission and iv) the design of conservation and management plans for wildlife.
