My research focuses on epidemiological and evolutionary implications of pathogens as well as on integrating the multiplicity of spatio-temporal scales in the fundamental study of infectious diseases. My work rely on various modelling approaches aligned along three axes: within-host microbial ecology, epidemiological dynamics and virulence evolution. In particular, I worked on Ebolavirus (EBOV), human papillomavirus (HPV), multipartite viruses, antibiotic resistance and SARS-CoV-2.

At the University of Montpellier, I am in charge of modelling, spatial data analysis, epidemiology and probability courses to undergraduate and graduate students with major in Biology. I also take part to both initial and continuing training of natural sciences teachers (human physiopathology, cell biology, evolutionary biology). At the École normale supérieure (Paris), I am a member of the Master 1 jury and I give a lecture in modelling. Besides, I have been involved in several short and long term scientific outreach activities, from elementary school and broad audience to non-specialist students
