I completed my bachelor's degree in Cellular Biology and Organismal Physiology from the University of Strasbourg in France. Following that, I pursued a master's degree at Linköping University in Sweden, within the IFM Division, under the guidance of Dr. Per Jensen and in collaboration with Enya Van Poucke. During this time, I researched play behaviour in chickens and explored its potential as a strategy to mitigate stress from commercial hatchery treatments. I am currently doing my PhD at the University of Bern, under the supervision of Dr. Matthew Petelle and within the research group led by Dr. Michael Toscano. My project focuses on fundamental aspects of animal behaviour—personality, plasticity, and predictability. Specifically, I investigate how individual behavioural differences emerge during early life and evolve across ontogeny, with potential applications for improving animal welfare.
