My research is part of a global objective to decipher morphological variation using 3D geometric morphometrics to improve phylogenies. I work on several vertebrate clades focusing on complex phenomena, such as allometry, or analyzing the components of morphological variation through artificial selection. My current projects concern :

• The evolution of Paleogene predatory mammals (mostly Carnivora) in Europe.
• The diversity of Pleistocene Xenarthra.
• The impact of gigantism on the morphological variation of Xenarthra and Sirenia.
• The developmental and functional biology of Cingulata.
• The development of defense strategies in Amniotes.
• Phenomics of goldfishes.
• Early phases of domestication on fish morphology.
