My activity
My research focuses on the systematics, phylogeny and evolutionary dynamics of mammals, particularly artiodactyls. By studying their fossil remains, I aim to understand how their patterns of diversity have been established over time and to identify the factors responsible for their macroevolution. I’m also trying to determine their phylogenetic relationships, mainly by studying cranio-dental morphology. My work is an integral part of the ANR DEADENDER and ENLIVEN projects, which focus on the study of endemic European mammals in the Quercy phosphorite region of south-west France.
