Caroline Colliard
Research interests
I am generally interested in various aspects of evolutionary biology, especially in phylogenetics and population genetics approaches. In particular, I'm fond of speciation processes, phylogeography and mechanisms of evolution and amphibian biology.
The general idea of my PhD is to study the evolution of non-recombining chromosomes focusing on two model organims : the European tree frog (Hyla arborea) and the green toad (Bufo viridis subgroup).
