Postdoctoral researcher

Having recently joined the CL•|-M•E lab for the next two years, I will be investigating the hypotheses underlying the drivers of ectotherm thermoregulation in a phylogenetic and global context.

During my PhD, I studied the physiological and behavioural plasticity of both wet-skin and dry-skin ectotherms in response to hydric constraints, and how these mechanisms contribute to adaptation to arid environments. I also explored these adaptive responses across multiple spatial scales, from microclimates to mesoclimates, to better understand how ectotherms cope with environmental heterogeneity.

I am very excited to have joined this team, which offers an outstanding scientific environment and new opportunities to better understand the behavioural and physiological responses of ectotherms to global environmental change.
