I study how variation in signal production and perception influences (i) the evolution of signals in multiple sensory modalities (acoustic, visual and chemical domains) and (ii) the adaptation (through phenotypic plasticity and/or genetic variability) to different environments, a topic for which there is nowadays a growing interest in the new field of sensory ecology, notably to understand how species cope with their rapidly changing environment due to anthropogenic activities. |
Resarch
In the context of behavioural, sensory and evolutionary ecology, my research activities aim at understanding how variation in communication (signal production and perception, cognition) influences (i) the evolution of multisensory signalling (acoustic, visual, chemical) and (ii) the adaptation (or not) of populations (phenotypic plasticity, genetic variability) to rapid environmental changes, particularly of anthropogenic nature such as climate change, urbanization or biological invasions. I combine complementary approaches (correlative, experimental, comparative; in the field and in the laboratory) on various biological models (birds, frogs, insects, plants) to answer fundamental and applied questions related to signals and their perception.
In the past 15 years, while researchers interested in animal communication were mostly focused in studying information transmission from the sender point of view, in my research, I have simultaneously studied how variation in the processes of perception and cognition of receivers influences the evolution of multisensory signalling, a topic for which there is nowadays an increasing growing interest in ecology.
