During my PhD, my main advisor and co-director was Sylvie Gourlet-Fleury, head of the

CIRAD (Centre for International Research in Agronomy and Development)
in Montpellier. My PhD director was Sandra Lavorel, chief of the team Functional
traits and dynamics of alpine ecosystems, a research unit of the
LECA (Laboratoire

an experimental set up dedicated to the study of
the ecosystems of French Guiana. I also conducted teaching, practical courses and field trips at
Montpellier II University.
