I am an ecologist specializing in avian biology, using long-term individual-based datasets to understand climate change effects on birds. I am particularly interested in the short- and long-term consequences of heat stress during nestling development. I have also been getting more and more engaged in Open Science and Reproducibility practices.

Currently, I’m a postdoc at the Swiss Ornithological Institute, where my SNSF-funded project investigates recent changes in body size and shape of Alpine swifts (Tachymarptis melba) and their short- and long-term consequences.

I recently completed a Marie Skłodowska-Curie Global Fellowship (CLIMGROWTH, Horizon 2020 grant No 101025938), bridging the Bize Lab (Dr. Pierre Bize, Swiss Ornithological Institute - Vogelwarte Sempach, Switzerland) and the M.A.D. Lab (Prof. Julien Martin, University of Ottawa, Canada). Link to the official page.

NEWS!!

We are launching a Europe-wide survey for wildlife rescue centers to assess how heatwaves and extreme weather impact swift nestlings using large-scale admission data. See the dedicated page here: Saving swifts, understanding climate.

Beyond research, I contribute to ornithological societies, Open Science initiatives, and women-in-STEM promotion—see my Open Science and Other Activities pages.

When not coding R mixed models or analyzing nestling growth curves, you can probably find me hiking in a nice forest or up a mountain, watching birds and other animals, or relaxing in the sun while reading a book. Random news and chats on Bluesky and GitHub.
