RESEARCH INTERESTS

My research goal is to build the theoretical foundations of a new ecological synthesis that integrates the divergent perspectives of community ecology, evolutionary ecology and ecosystem ecology. I view theory as a powerful tool to generate, clarify and generalise new concepts and hypotheses; accordingly, I attach great importance to a tight interaction between the mathematical models I develop and empirical or experimental work on a wide range of ecosystems, both terrestrial and aquatic.

My main research theme during the past twenty years has been the relationship between biodiversity and ecosystem functioning and the ecological and societal consequences of biodiversity loss. This new field of research has experienced a dramatic growth to which I have contributed both through my scientific work and through my responsibilities in multiple national and international initiatives. I have also laid the theoretical foundations of three new research fields that address the spatial, and evolutionary and societal dimensions of biodiversity and ecosystem functioning: metacommunity and metaecosystem ecology, evolutionary ecosystem ecology, and the dynamics and sustainability of human-nature interactions. Lastly, I have championed an integrative biodiversity science that transcends disciplinary boundaries.

Science and policy
I also believe that science should become aware of its social responsibilities. Therefore, I have devoted significant efforts to fostering new research initiatives and linking science and policy in the area of biodiversity and ecosystem services internationally. I have been member of numerous national and international scientific committees. In particular, I initiated and chaired the Linking Community and Ecosystem Ecology programme of the European Science Foundation; I restructured and chaired DIVERSITAS, the international programme of biodiversity science; I chaired the International Conference Biodiversity Science and Governance organised by France under the high patronage of the President of the French Republic and the Director-General of UNESCO; and I initiated and chaired the consultative process towards an International Mechanism of Scientific Expertise on Biodiversity, which gave birth to the Intergovernmental science−policy Platform on Biodiversity and Ecosystem Services (IPBES).

SUMMARY C.V.

I am currently an emeritus researcher at the National Centre for Scientific Research (CNRS) and adjunct professor at Peking University (Beijing, China). After obtaining my Ph.D. at the Free University of Brussels (Belgium), I was a research assistant at the National Fund for Scientific Research (Belgium), a lecturer at the Free University of Brussels, a programme manager at the Science Policy Office (Belgium), a professor at Pierre and Marie Curie University (Paris, France), a professor and Canada research chair in theoretical ecology at McGill University (Montreal, Canada), and a senior researcher at CNRS.
