I am a researcher in freshwater ecology at the University of Applied Sciences and Arts of Southern Switzerland (SUPSI). My research focuses on freshwater ecosystems, with expertise spanning fish ecology, evolutionary ecology, population genetics/genomics, trophic ecology and limnology. I am particularly interested in understanding how environmental change influences freshwater biodiversity and ecological processes across levels of biological organisation, from populations to food webs and whole-lake dynamics.
My expertise includes: • fish ecology, population dynamics and migration • population genetics and genomics • trophic ecology and lake food webs • limnological monitoring
My current research includes studies of brown trout populations in perialpine lakes, climate effects on Arctic lake food webs, salmon migration and genomics in the UK, as well as limnological monitoring of Lake Lugano, Switzerland.

I am interested in joining a BiodivFuture consortium investigating the emergence, functioning and future trajectories of novel freshwater ecosystems. I am particularly interested in how climate change and other anthropogenic pressures can drive ecological and evolutionary change in lakes and rivers, altering population connectivity, trophic interactions, biodiversity, and ecosystem functioning.
I can contribute expertise in fish ecology, telemetry, population genetics/genomics, food-web ecology and limnology.
