Before landing in Ariège, Michel Loreau, a great name of ecology dragged up in many corners of the world, relentlessly inventorying species or trying to understand ecosystem functioning while remaining an activist for biodiversity. His research focuses more specifically on gathering disjoint fields: ecosystems functioning, community organization and evolution of species. After his thesis in Brussels and a position at the Pierre et Marie Curie University then at the McGill one, he will now keep on working in Moulis, on behalf of the Experimental Station of Ecology (SEEM). He came here with his team thanks to the Midi-Pyrenees Regional Council, CNRS and TULIP LabEx.
