BOREA Laboratory: Biology of Aquatic Organisms and Ecosystems
Research teams
EMERGE - Environment, (epi)genoMEs, deteRminisms and ontoGEnesis
The team brings together colleagues from the unit specialized in ontogenesis processes, which are the processes that lead to the establishment of differentiated cells, tissues, o
SOMAQUA - Sources and transfers of Organic Matter in AQUAtic systems
In aquatic systems, organic matter, dissolved and particulate, impregnates quickly and durably, at small (hours, days, months) and large (years, decades ...) spatio-temporal scal
PHYPAQ - Physiology of aquatic organisms exploited by fisheries and aquaculture
The scientific concerns of the PhyPAQ team focus on the physiology of aquatic organisms for the development of sustainable aquaculture and fisheries.
AMEX - Adaptations to Extreme Environments
Our group studies Deep sea chemosynthetic environments, such as hydrothermal vents, hydrocarbon seeps. Sunken wood or whale carcasses are also of interest to us.
ECOFUNC - Functional ecology of coastal trophic and social-ecological networks
The team EcoFunc’s objectives are to establish a link between individuals’ functions (growth, reproduction, bleaching, toxicity, metabolism, diet, migration, etc), ecosystem’s fu
BIOPAC - Biodiversity, Plasticity, Adaptation and Conservation
The Knowledge of the mechanisms that regulate the structure, the dynamics, the functioning and the future of the aquatic populations is essential for the development of models an
EVOREG - Evolution of regulations and control of biological cycles
Our team is interested in regulations at the level of the organism, their molecular mechanisms and their role in the control, evolution and adaptation of biological life cycles.

BOREA Laboratory: Biology of Aquatic Organisms and Ecosystems
The BOREA “Biology of Aquatic Organisms and Ecosystems” Lab aims to investigate biology and ecology of aquatic organisms and habitats in natural and impacted ecosystems. Using a transdisciplinary and integrative approach, the objective is to understand the origin, the role and the evolutionary mechanisms in aquatic biodiversity (from molecules to ecosystems), the interactions (i) between organisms and (ii) with their environment, as a response to global anthropogenic and climatic changes.
