Skills
I’m a soil functional ecologist working on biological regulation on key ecosystems functions:
- organic matter decomposition,
- nutrient (nitrogen and phosphorus) recycling,
- microbial activity and composition,
- plant growth and nutrition,
- plant tolerance against pests.
Currently, I’m studying the soil microbial loop (i.e. the effect of soil bacteria-bacterivore interactions on plant performances) in upland rice agro-ecosystem in Madagascar where I’m assigned since February 2015. I currently coordinate the projects INDICE (Agropolis Funding) and BAC-RIP (EC2CO funding).
