Functional Experimental Approaches in Microbial Ecotoxicology

The EcotoxicoMic Research School 2025 offers an in-depth exploration of functional and experimental approaches in microbial ecotoxicology. Aimed at PhD students, postdoctoral researchers, and scientists, this course will focus on the study of contaminant–microbiota interactions, integrating concepts from ecology, microbiology, and ecotoxicology.

The program will combine lectures, hands-on workshops, scientific exchanges, and collaborative discussions — all in a unique natural setting.

The sessions will include:
  • Keynotes by international researchers
  • Field training on soil, river and marine environment
  • Mesocosms : artificial rivers, soil microcosm…
  • Lab practices on functional measurements: photosynthesis, respiration, enzymatic activities…
  • Data analyses
  • Results presentation and discussion
