[SC-MorphLab] Killian Leblanc - Research assistant

[killian Leblanc]

To whom it may concern


I am Killian Leblanc, a Master of Science's graduate (since 2019) in
biology and systematic from Sorbonne University in collaboration with the
natural history museum of Paris (MNHN). I'm currently looking for a job as
a research assistant, and I wanted to know if my profile could interest you.

During my master's thesis, I worked on the burrowing frog genus
* Synapturanus*, with Antoine Fouquet and Anne-Claire Fabre. We used a
taxonomy integrative protocol based on 16S gene metabarcoding,
vocalization, and external allometry to establish different candidate
species hypotheses during this study. We also examined candidate species
with a complete molecular database (mitogenome and nuclear genes) with
regards to morphometric analyses (3D landmarks on skull and humerus) and
biogeography. We published two papers on the genus this year. I mainly
contributed to the statistical analysis, morphological description, and
geomorphic morphometrics shape analysis.

Besides all my work on *Synapturanus*, I developed a high interest in 3D
printing. I learned that the 3D models of my specimens were compatible with
this technology. I decided to print the osteological part of my specimens.
I think that could be useful for exposition or as pedagogical tools, and I
would be pleased to use those skills as an additional part of my work.

I hope that I could put my skills at work in your lab, and if there is no
position, I would be grateful if you know a person who might be interesting
in my profile.

Thank you in advance for your attention and your answer,

Best regards,


Killian Leblanc
