Benjamin is the main author of the software for phylogenetic placement called RAPPAS, which was later expanded as EPIK. We have collaborated on other metagenomics methods: SHERPAS and PEWO. We are currently collaborating on k-mer based methods.
He spent 3 months as engineer with us, before joining the startup Spygen. He was hosted in our team as a startup engineer thanks to the funding from the Plan de Relance - France 2030. In November 2022, Benjamin was recruited by INRAE in Toulouse as a full-time Researcher. Congrats Benjamin!
