Research Interests

My main research interest focuses on the physical modelling of biological systems from a statistical mechanics perspective. During the Ph.D. I am investigating what is the role of oceanic circulation in plankton communities' structure and functioning. Thanks to TARA Oceans project, we now have a huge metagenomic database of planktons ranging from viruses to small animals from all over the world. Thus, my goal is to combine the analysis of these recent data on the oceanic metagenomic functional diversity with a hierarchy of conceptual models describing circulation and plankton dynamics with increased complexity.
