I am a Chair Professor Junior (CPJ) at the Savoie Mont Blanc University and Institute for Research in Management and Economics (IREGE) in France. 


The topic of my chair is to explore the link between climate change, environmental risks, and mental health, also known as eco-anxiety. Grounded in experimental and behavioral economics, my research focuses on measuring eco-anxiety, identifying drivers, evaluating impacts on pro-environmental behaviors, and proposing interventions to mitigate it

In addition, I am also studying new developments in Open Science, focusing on reducing questionable research and publishing practices through pre-registration and Registered Reports. As part of this research agenda, I recently obtained a Young Researcher ANR grant for a 42-month project entitled Evaluating and Improving Open Science Practices in Economics [EIOSE].

Last, due to my past research, I also have interests in studying plant-based diets, animal welfare, and environmental attitudes.


Since October 1, 2025, I am an elected member of the Ethics Review Board (CEPR) at the National Research Institute for Agriculture, Food, and Environment (INRAE) for a four-year term.
