My research involves measuring and monitoring the responses of surface environments to anthropogenic disturbances. This monitoring enables me to understand the mechanisms associated with the reactivity of contaminants in the geosphere and biosphere. I use metallic and isotopic markers to trace the sources and transfer dynamics of contaminants. I am developing multidisciplinary research (geochemistry, biology, medicine, ecology, archaeology) into (i) the imprint of toxic metals on the biosphere and (ii) the relationships between changes in natural environments (climate, resources) and urban societies (economic and political resilience). I apply this interdisciplinarity to the dissemination of science, teaching through research in a CIVIS network, as Scientific Culture Officer at CEREGE, and at the Académie des Sciences, Agriculture, Arts et Belles Lettres (Aix en Provence).
