About Me

I am a behavioural ecologist fascinated by how environmental heterogeneity influences social and mating systems, dispersal patterns, life-histories, and species distribution. My main study systems are highly social fishes from Lake Tanganyika and, more recently, freshwater fishes from perialpine Lakes and associated river systems. I am currently a researcher at the Wyss Academy for Nature, which is affiliated with the Institute of Ecology and Evolution at the University of Bern. Here I am working on an interdisciplinary project involving scientists, government agencies and NGOs. The goal of the project is to identify and implement data-driven conservation strategies for freshwater ecosystems that take into account both climate change and human impacts.
