Summary
Corentin Barbu is a researcher with 13 years’ experience applying mathematical modeling and statistics to biology, currently at INRAe where he builds spatially explicit models to design landscape and cropping arrangements that promote natural pest regulation and reduce pesticide use. Trained with a PhD in Biology and a postdoc in epidemiology at the University of Pennsylvania, he blends theory and applied computation to study trophic networks linking crops, pests and beneficial species. His background spans computational biology, CUDA-accelerated computing and advanced C, and he has taught databases and programming at the university level. Notably, his work bridges epidemiological methods from disease modelling to agroecological systems, revealing cross-disciplinary tools for managing biological risk at landscape scales.
