Her research focuses on the settlement dynamics and the social structure of the first agro-pastoral communities in continental Europe, through an “anthropological reading” of their ceramic productions. She is currently pursuing research within the team Trajectoires of the Centre National de Recherche Scientifique (CNRS) in Nanterre (France). Since 2008, she has regularly lectured in academic seminars of Prehistory and Ceramology at the University Paris 1 Panthéon-Sorbonne.
