I work on the benthic ecology of the deep waters of the Southern and Indian Oceans. My research aims to :

• understanding the structuring of macro-epibenthos communities,
• characterizing the distribution patterns of species and communities,
• understanding the link between environmental factors and the specific composition of communities,
• highlighting anthropogenic parameters that can influence or impact community organization,
• producing expertise for the conservation of macro-epibenthos communities and populations.
