I am a
limnologist and aquatic ecologist. My primary research interests include
food-web interactions, particularly those involving zooplankton and planktivorous
fish. For my doctoral research, I studied predatory zooplankton and their
impact on the composition and size structure of the zooplankton communities.
During my postdoctoral research, I was involved in a project to restore the
plankton community of alpine lakes previously stocked with trout. I also
worked on a project to characterize the biological diversity in all
mountain lakes of
