Having a PhD in forest ecology, I work as researcher at INRAE in the Forest Zoology Research Unit at the interface between community ecology and biological invasion, studying the interactions occurring between a native community and an exotic species.
My PhD subject was about the consequences of forest dieback on habitats and resources, and consequently on communities, especially arthropods. I worked on the synergistic effects of climate and land use changes on bird communities across Finnish landscapes.
Before that, I have a technical background with professional studies in forestry management and a degree in forestry engineering. My research interests lie in understanding the functioning of forest ecosystems and their resistance and responses to biological invasion. This includes biotic and abiotic interactions, land-use intensity, conservation biology and functional ecology.About my research
