Isabelle Béchard graduated from the Université du Québec à Rimouski in Marine biology (BSc) in 2009 and Wildlife and habitat management (MSc) in 2011. Her M.Sc. thesis dealt with the ontogeny of the Late Devonian dipnoan Scaumenacia curta (Miguasha, Canada) with one of the most complete size series for a Paleozoic fish. Working now as a research assistant for Dr. Richard Cloutier at the Université du Québec à Rimouski, her work focus on Evo-Devo in paleontology and on the anatomy of the vertebrate species from the Miguasha Laggersttäte. In October 2013, she joined the Centre de développement et de recherche en imagerie numérique (CDRIN) in Matane (Québec) as the scientific director.
