Welcome to Nolan Benoit, who has just started his PhD with me. He is my first PhD student (bear with me!), and he will focus on the effects of PFAS contamination on immunity and survival in different seabird populations."

Our latest study is online! 🐣

We show that tebuconazole, a widely used fungicide, significantly reduces growth and survival of house sparrow chicks at concentrations similar to those found in birds from intensive vineyard areas !

A new study about Hg contamination in common terns is out! We found that breeding pairs have similar Hg levels and this level also reflect the contamination of their eggs. Follow the link for more :
