Plant ecophysiologist and structural biologist. I am group leader of the indoor farming research group at Biopterre, in the province of Québec, Canada. My group works on smart cultivation techniques (use of AI in decision making, indoor cultivation, use of LEDs) and on the production of secodnary metabolites in plants (cannabis and plants for the pharmaceutical industry). I was also until recently affiliated with the Institute of Botany, University of Natural Resources and Life Sciences, Vienna (BOKU Wien), Austria.
