Our team

David Beauchesne, PhD.

Co-founder and data scientist

David Beauchesne holds a PhD in oceanography from the Institut des sciences de la mer and has 10+ years of experience on ecosystem-based management in general and cumulative effects assessment in particular, relying heavily on data science, reproducibility and sound data management practices.

Kevin Cazelles, PhD.

Co-founder and data scientist

Kevin Cazelles holds a joint PhD between Université du Québec à Rimouski and Université Montpellier. He is reproducible research advocate tackling research challenges in various areas of ecology through which he acquired a very broad set of quantitative and computational skills.

Steve Vissault, MSc.

Co-founder and data scientist

Steve Vissault holds a MSc from Université du Québec à Rimouski where he focused on forest dynamics in the context of climate change and he developed strong quantitative and computational skills. He has since worked as a lead data scientist in the environmental and medical fields.

Our expertise

We are distinguished scientists and data experts specializing in biodiversity sciences. Our academic expertise spans theoretical food web ecology and the development of essential methodologies for ecosystem-based management, as detailed in our extensive list of peer-reviewed publications. As data scientists, we excel in a wide range of statistical analyses, applying them to large and diverse datasets using advanced technologies. With over a decade of professional and academic experience, we have honed our skills in supporting academic and governmental scientists in analyzing and visualizing biodiversity data, and in creating robust analytical pipelines and interactive tools.
