Professional Experience & Education

Floriane Plard

After completing a Bachelor and a Master in Biology, I specialized in population ecology and population modeling during my PhD and my Post-doctoral positions.

My professional experience in the research laboratories of different universities and at the Swiss Ornithological Institute have enriched my expertise in population dynamics, modeling, management and conservation of wild populations. During my PhD and later as an assistant professor in statistics, I also taught mathematics and statistics applied to biology and ecology.
