Research interests:
We conduct a multidisciplinary approach of Drosophila evolution from genetics/genomics to ethology, ecology and systematics. In particular, we work on genetic conflicts, horizontal transfer of transposable elements and viruses, and the genomic basis of adaptation and speciation.
Research organisms:
Several species of Drosophilidae
Expertise:
Genome sequencing and assembly, transposable elements annotation, CRISPR\Cas9 genome editing, population genomics, phylogenetics, systematics, experimental evolution
