POSITIONS

Research interests

 

  • Microbial ecology and ecotoxicology in coastal environments

  • Role of microorganisms in biogeochemical cycles and in pollutants degradation

  • Ecology and physiology of anaerobic hydrocarbonoclastic microorganisms (particularly sulfate-reducers)

  • Impact of environmental fluctuations on microbial community structure and function in coastal environments

Supervision

 

  • Supervision of 3 post-doctoral researchers, 11 PhD students (3 in progress), 13 MSc students and of technician staff (3).

Projects

 

  • Project coordination (16) since 2006, coordination of different projects supported by Europe (FEDER), Région Aquitaine, local collectivities (CDAPP), INSU CNRS LEFE and EC2CO – Microbien, industrial collaboration; and co-coordination of projects supported by ANR (EMPB), PHC (Utique, Procope, Cogito) and E2S-UPPA.

  • Participation (18) in different ANR Projects (SEST, CESA, BLANC), CNRS, INSU, E2S-UPPA, ERANETMED, Marie-Curie, FEDER and industrial collaboration.

 

Projects in progress:

  • BIOMIC (2020-2023): “Microbial and trophic bioindicators of the ecological state of the ecosystem in the SUDOE coastal zone” (Interreg SUDOE – Europe – FEDER). Coordination

  • SAFE REUSE (2020-2021): “Performic acid for a safe reuse of wastewater” (E2S “Seed funding for Partnership Initiative” and KEMIRA). Co-coordination with Thierry Pigot and Robert Duran.

  • MeSMic (2019-2024): “Metals in Environmental Systems Microbiology: An integrated approach to unravel metal ion interactions with microbial ecosystems at the molecular, cellular and community levels” (ISite E2S/UPPA). Partner.

  • FUNGDEG (2019-2021): “Elucidating biomarkers and functions of bacterial-fungal interactions during the degradation of polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons at changing environmental conditions” (PHC PROCOPE). Co-coordination.

  • AQUASALT (2018-2022): “Agriculture effects on inland saline water bodies and on lake/laguna hydrological complexes” (ERANETMED). Partner
