AgroParisTech - Université Paris Saclay
Nathalie Frascaria-Lacoste is Professor of Evolutionary Ecology and Ecological Engineering at AgroParisTech and Deputy Director of the Ecology, Systematics and Evolution Laboratory at Université Paris Saclay. She has been involved in the field of evolutionary genetics in forest trees for 15 years, and has gradually shifted the focus of her work to the field of ecological engineering and sustainable land management, with three main lines of research: the role of stakeholders in socio-ecosystems; environmental assessment in France and public policies for nature protection; decision-making and governance tools to reduce the effects of urbanization on biodiversity.
Reconciling nature and the city, a highly artificial environment, is an art that is practised from the scale of the building to that of the suburban territory, including that of the neighbourhood.
