organisation profile
- * Study of benthic organisms of ancient lakes such as lakes Baikal, Tanganyika and Nyasa/Malawi. Owing to their largely endemic fauna, these lakes are excellent natural laboratories for the research on evolution and speciation.
* Ecologic strategies of fresh-water organisms, notably through particular adaptations of their spreading mechanisms and of their life-cycles.
* Study of the bio-indicators of water pollution. The studied organisms are branchiopods, chironomids, leeches and ostracods.
