My research interests are related to global change impacts (mainly climate change but also air pollution, prescribed fire) on plant specialized metabolism (volatile and non volatile metabolites) and the eventual consequences of such impacts on both, fundamental ecological processes (plant adaptation to global changes, trade-offs between defense and growth, plant defense, litter degradation, plant-organism interactions) and major environmental issues of our society including air pollution and fire risk. I carry out these works at different scales, from the leaf cell to the atmosphere through an interdisciplinary approach (chemical ecology, plant ecophysiology, fire ecology and atmospheric chemistry).
