I obtained my PhD (2000-2004) at the University of Lausanne, working on epithelial-mesenchymal interactions in mouse skin. I then performed a Post-Doc (2005-2009) in Denis Duboule’s laboratory at the University of Geneva (Switzerland) investigating Hox gene function, regulation and evolution in different vertebrate species including mice, lizards, and snakes. I then made a 3.5 years Post-Doc in Milinkovitch’s laboratory (LANE) where I investigated evolutionary developmental biology in reptiles. I am now a group leader in the Institute of Biotechnology at the University of Helsinki (Finland).
