Research Interest: Aquatic food webs, invertebrates, biogeochemistry, anthropogenic perturbations, invasive species, carbon cycle, stable isotope ecology.

 About me: I am a research scientist at the St. Lawrence River Institute, in Cornwall, Ontario. My research consists in the assessment of the effect of flow variation on the food web of rivers impacted by hydro-electric development. Based on stable isotope technique, I am interested in the connection between land and aquatic environments, with a particular focus on dynamic of the planktonic food web (phytoplankton and zooplankton).
