Thibault Genissel
Doctor in conservation sciences, I offer conferences on biodiversity and environmental transition, at the crossroads of life sciences, philosophy, and social sciences.
Researcher specialized in applied biology to conservation, former student of the École Normale Supérieure de Lyon, I offer conferences and interventions on various themes, prepared or adapted to the needs of the hosting institution. My doctoral work, conducted at the National Museum of Natural History, focused on the evocative-centered approach to conservation and led to the development of the evolutionary footprint framework, a standardized tool to quantify the evolutionary impact of human activities on biodiversity. Through a multidisciplinary background enriched by a triple master's degree in biology, agronomy, and philosophy of science, my positioning is unique. I offer an integrative vision of contemporary issues by combining life sciences, environmental philosophy, and political, economic, and social sciences.

My conferences
From wilderness to carbon markets: history of ideas and challenges of conservation
From the impacts of human activity on living beings to scientific and political responses: a comprehensive introduction to the historical and contemporary challenges of biodiversity conservation, accessible to all audiences.
Biodiversity in crisis: what is the reality of past and future changes?
Understanding the contemporary issues related to biodiversity requires a broad vision: from the great biogeochemical cycles of the planet to the evolution of wild populations, this conference offers an overview of human footprints on living beings.
IPCC, IPBES, COP...: understanding the institutions and indicators of environmental transition
Organizations contribute to the documentation and planning of the fight against global changes. Through a review of essential institutions, this conference provides the necessary understanding of the reports they produce.
Evocentrism: the conservation of biodiversity through the lens of evolution
Human activities impact the evolution of living beings at all biological scales. Evocentrism is an ethical and scientific approach aimed at identifying and reducing these impacts, to address the biodiversity crisis.
