معرفی
Jérôme Goudet serves as Associate Professor in the Department of Ecology and Evolution at the University of Lausanne's Faculty of Biology and Medicine, where he has held academic positions continuously since 1995. He currently leads the master program Behavior, Evolution, Conservation (BEC) and previously served as Vice Head of the Department managing finance and human resources from 2001-2004.
His educational background includes a Baccalaureat in Biology (1983), DEUG in Biology from University Paris VII (1985), Agronomic Engineer degree from Institut National Agronomique Paris-Grignon (1989), and PhD from University of Wales, Bangor (1993) focusing on The genetics of geographically structured populations.
Professor Goudet's research centers on population genetics with emphasis on spatial genetic structure, evolutionary dynamics, and conservation applications. His work bridges theoretical modeling with empirical studies in natural populations, examining how ecological forces shape genetic variation across landscapes. He leads the Goudet research group exploring these themes through interdisciplinary approaches integrating fieldwork, laboratory analysis, and computational methods.
He teaches core courses including Statistics for second-year biologists, Population Genetics for undergraduate and graduate students, and specialized R programming workshops. His administrative leadership extends beyond the BEC program to departmental strategic planning and resource management.
Outside academia, Professor Goudet maintains active engagement with mountain environments through ski touring, telemarking, snowboarding, and hiking in the Alps and Jura ranges, reflecting his deep connection to the ecological systems he studies.
