Romain is an evolutionary ecologist and veterinarian who is interested in how natural selection shapes the strength and duration of immune defenses, especially maternally derived immunity. He has worked a lot on wild birds as well as mammals, including the charming Soay sheep of St. Kilda, Scotland (while he was a postdoc at Princeton, 2012-2015) and Ghanaian bats. He has gone into analytical consulting. Romain is also on a quest for perfect cheese.
