Hemery, L.

Now a Marine Energy Specialist at Pacific Northwest National Laboratory in Sequim (WA, U.S.), I completed my Ph.D. in Ecology and Evolution from the National Museum of Natural History of Paris (France) and a postdoctoral position at Hatfield Marine Science Center, in Newport (OR, U.S.). My research uses an integrative approach to characterize and understand the patterns and processes of marine benthic biodiversity, particularly in relation to human activities at sea. My interdisciplinary experience in marine biology spans from population genetics to species evolution to community ecology, which allows me to bridge biology, ecology and oceanography topics and investigate research questions related to marine biodiversity macroevolution and conservation, global environmental changes and sustainable uses of marine environments around the world.
