The research programs that I develop concern the physiological and behavioral adaptations of the human species. They are located at the interface between evolutionary sciences, medicine and human sciences. The evolutionary approach, by taking into account the processes of natural selection and evolutionary trade-offs, has opened many avenues to current issues in the field of health. In particular, investigations on local adaptations and on the adaptive specificities of women promise multiple applications for the development of individualized medicine. However, a lot of work remains to be done to strengthen the bridges between physicians and evolutionary biologists, and in particular to bring the research topics closer to the concrete problems of clinicians and patients. This is why I have devoted the last few years to medical studies, which allowed me to become a doctor in 2021. My current research projects concern: genetic and behavioral mechanisms of local adaptation to risk, the effects of oxytocin administration on the mother-child relationship and child development, the influence of the menstrual cycle on inflammatory diseases, and the interest of probiotic prescription.
