As an evolutionary ecophysiologist, my research focuses on the mechanisms enabling animal species to cope with environmental fluctuations. A particular interest of my research lies on the understanding of how heterothermic endotherms especially hibernators respond to environmental change and global warming. I tailored my education to learn how to use an integrative physiology approach to understand the animals ability to adapt at every levels of integration from the whole organism down to proteins and genes. In an effort to include in my research as many people as possible, I synergise my research, mentoring, and  teaching to advance the field of energetics and metabolic adaptations of wild species in the context of environmental change. My inclusive and highly collaborative research provides many opportunities to students and young scientists to participate to multidisciplinary projects at local, national and international levels.
