I have moved from fediscience.org so here's my #introduction again 😬!
I am a #paleobotanist and a #CNRS researcher in Montpellier, France. I study #fossils from the #Paleozoic and early #Mesozoic (400 to-200 million years ago) to understand the #evolution of plant diversity and biology 🌿⛏️ I'm also interested in plants that are still living (#iamabotanist) and will post about #paleobotany and #botany 🌳🌺
