Marine Research Technician in the IAEA Environmental Laboratories (REL) in Monaco.Planning and technical implementation of various radioecology experiments: in particular those involving multiple stressors (i.e. ocean acidification, deoxygenation, microplastics) and the uptake and loss kinetics of radionuclides and biotoxins in marine organisms. Maintenance and pre-experimental acclimation of a variety of sensitive marine species (e.g. mussels, coral, algae, cuttlefish, sea bream, dogfish, chromis and clownfish).

Laboratory technician specialising in the husbandry of the aquatic zebrafish (Danio rerio) and associated genetic strains and Xenopus species to ensure compliance with ASPA ’86 guidelines in a biomedical research facility.Skills - fin clipping; RNA extraction; cDNA production; PCR techniques and genotyping.
