Functional Rarity: an additional biodiversity facet

What are the ecological and evolutionary mechanisms explaining functional rarity and functional originality?

Teaching

I am a certified Instructor for The Carpentries, focusing on R programming (especially for ecology) and Data Visualization.

I also taught the following courses at the University of Montpellier:

  • HLMA314 Practicals in Descriptive Statistics for Ecology 2017-2018,
  • HLBE405 Practical project in Functional Ecology,
  • HLMA314 Practicals in Descriptive Statistics for Ecology 2018-2019.

I also found the R User Group of our lab and organize regular meetups for the group.
