Christelle Fraïsse
Associate Editor
Christelle Fraïsse is a Centre National de la Recherche Scientifique researcher at Lille University working at the interface between theoretical and empirical evolutionary genetics. She is interested in understanding the evolutionary processes underlying speciation and adaptation, the determinants of selection efficacy and the evolution of sex chromosomes. Her lab combines theoretical modelling, computational methods and genomic data analyses. She received her PhD in Evolutionary Biology from the University of Montpellier in France and pursued a postdoctoral fellowship at the Institute of Science and Technology, Austria in the laboratories of Nick Barton and Beatriz Vicoso. She received an European Research Council Starting Grant to study the evolution of haplodiplontic plants.
