About me
I am a F.R.S.-FNRS Aspirant (ASP) PhD student doing a joint doctoral thesis between the University of Liège (Belgium) and the University of La Laguna (Canary Islands, Spain). My thesis focuses on the possible biodiversity loss linked to human colonizations on islands: Have the Guanches, the first human beings to live on the Canary Islands, had an impact on the biodiversity? This question will possibly be answered through population genetic analyses. I am part of the iEcoEvoLab team on Tenerife for two projects: the ASTERALIEN project which aims to study various aspects of the Canarian Asteraceae species, both native and introduced, and the INVASION project which focuses on invasive plant species.
