Biographie

Hi ! I’m Agathe, an ocean and microbiology enthusiast and a PhD student in the Paoli Group (ELISIR 2023) at EPFL. I studied ecology and evolution at the École Normale Supérieure - PSL (Paris, France) and I'm currently enrolled in the Computational and Quantitative Biology PhD Program.
I'm passionate about understanding the ecological dynamics of microbial communities in marine ecosystems, with a special focus on bacterial-phage interactions. One of the main focus of my PhD will be to identify bacterial immune pathways in MAGs from the global ocean and to analyze their distribution and expression across metagenomes.
