TEACHING
Block course Ecomorphology, lecture with practical. Students in this course and practical work in small groups (2 per group) and learn how to conduct ecomorphological studies. They learn to conduct a research question and design a study beginning with setting up an ecomorphological protocol, collect and analyse data (3D data on morphology, gather a phylogeny and use all the tools that are available to scientists: Morphosource, vertlife, …), interpret and present results in oral format. Scientific projects focus on how ecological factors impact the pattern of morphological variation in a group of vertebrates of their choice. University of Bern, Bern, Switzerland. > 40 hours. 2024-2025
Evolutionary and functional morphology, practical for advanced students (BSC thesis). Students develop a project on evolutionary and functional morphology on which they work for 3 months. At the end, they must write a manuscript and give a presentation.
Evolutionary and functional morphology (MSC thesis) Students develop a project on evolutionary and functional morphology on which they work for 1.5 year. At the end, they must write a manuscript and give a presentation.
Lecture series in ecology and evolution, seminar. University of Bern, Bern, Switzerland. 1 hour.
Aktuelle Themen Biologie, Colloquium. University of Bern, Bern, Switzerland. 1 hour. 2023
Journal club systematics, seminar, University of Bern, Bern, Switzerland. 26-hours. In the Journal Club Systematics, we discuss recent publications related to systematics of different groups of metazoan animals as well as methods of phylogenetic reconstruction including morphological, functional morphological and molecular genetic techniques. The participating students have to present in groups of 2 a set of papers presenting a view and a counter-view on a scientific question. 2022-2025
Biogeography, lecture. I taught on the Biogeography of mammals and niche modelling University of Bern, Bern, Switzerland. 3 hours. 2022-2024
HerpTalks 2022, Universiteit Antwerpen, Antwerp, Belgium, 1-hour mini course on Identifying how life cycle variation drives morphological and functional diversity in salamanders, 2022
Evolutionary Morphology of Vertebrates - Issues and Methods BIO 262 Zurich University, Zurich, Switzerland. I taught theoretical courses and practical during three days on morphological evolution. I designed both, the course and practical. 2020
Paleobiology and Evolution of Vertebrates BIO 267 Zurich University, Zurich, Switzerland. I supervised three hours of presentation and discussion of 18 recent publications by students, 2020
Fieldwork in European Palaeontology and Natural History Museums BIO 266 Zurich University, Zurich, Switzerland. One-hour mini course on paleoichnology and dinosaur tracks in Switzerland in the module, 2020
Morphologie fonctionnelle BIOL0808-2 University of Liège, Belgium. Two-hour mini course on the functional morphology of the forelimb, 2019
Paléontologie animale PALE0209 University of Liège, Belgium. Two-hour mini course on how to use in vivo data to reconstruct the paleoecology of extinct species, 2019
Morphométrie et analyses des formes, Ecole doctorale du Museum National d’Histoire Naturelle, Paris, France. A one-day course and training on surface geometric morphometrics, co-organiser, 2010-2013
Biodiversity and Macroevolutionary Patterns GEOL3036 University College London, London, the United Kingdom, five-hour mini course on how to use comparative analyses with geometric morphometric data, 2012
